Quick Onion Rava Dosa

Rava dosa is very famous now a days. People love to eat this crispy and yummy dosas with chutney or like masala dosa (Rava Masala dosa), Rava onion dosa and even Plain Rava dosa is also will be very tasty and it is in a way healthy .
In Rava dosas we do not use much of rice and the content of rava is more. Normally in hotels they use maida to get the crispness and to hold all the ingredients tight. ( or dosa may turn into pieces) Here I have not used maida in this recipe, instead of that I used wheat flour. Adding little ( very little) is ok or dosa may turn soft and it may not taste good.
Rava is good for health and the people who want to reduce their weight. It takes longer duration to digest so that one who eats rava may not feel hungry for a long time. Though it contain carbohydrates. it has many good minerals and vitamins. Good for diabetic people. It contain fiber and good for people who are suffering from constipation.
Onion Rava dosa is good for breakfast or as snack and for dinner too.
