While grinding add water gradually . [little by little ]if you add lot of water at one time while grinding then it is difficult to get smooth batter.
Coconut can be omitted or reduced.
Before making a new dosa mix / stir the batter well.
Don’t stack [pile ] the dosa when it is hot .[ it will stick to each other]
If the batter is thick you will not get dosa with holes. [ lacy ]
There is no need of fermentation.
