- How to season and make cast iron pan like non stic? Or don't know how to season a dosa pan? These are my no fail tips for perfect dosa in cast iron pan. Make any dosa from crispy ghee roast to soft kallu dosa in cast iron tawa.
I find it easy to season regularly in my stove top. If you main and have a well seasoned pan, it is only 3 step process.
1. Add oil
2. Remove excess oil
3. Sprinkle water (see how hot the pan is)
Then simply pour the batter, make the desired dosa. Just need patience to wait until the dosa is ready to be removed.

Thanks for your quick response
It's really worked well. Prepared nice dosa.
Thanks for trying and letting me know 😌
Thanks for the great video. I'll definitely try out the methods presented. I have one question: can I use vegetable oil instead of coconut oil?
Thanks 💕 do try and let me know. You can use any oil. I also use sesame oil or peanut oil

Here is the recipe - www.prashainkitchen.com/recipes/idlibatter
@@PrashainKitchen thanks
Very helpful .....
Can we apply same trick for skillet n kadhai too ????
Hi, I am not sure of what kind of aluminum pan you own. If it's cast aluminum you can use this process. If not, I would treat it as stainless steel pan. Regular handwash.
Wowwww. You are amazing, I could not have figured it out myself. Thanks a lot!!!!
Thankyou so much....my Mom's cast iron tava was lying idle for many years.Your tip was very useful ...made lovely crisp dosas 🥰🥰🥰

Awesome, this 20 minutes trick works really well, thanks so much
+Ruchi Gupta thanks so much for trying this method ❤️😊I'm glad it helped you
Wow very nice video👌
Its useful i have the same one but its maintaince is hard now i got the tip will do it.Thanku
Thanks ❤️Do try😊
Really helpful video... I want to ask that instead of coconut oil any other oil can be used?
Any oil should work
Hi...
I love ur dosa... Plz upload dosa batter also with measuring cup of rice... Dal... N water while grinding d process....
I HD rava poha.... It was stitching even after seasoning it.... Can u advice me
I will definitely add a video for dosa batter. If rava dosa is sticking to the pan, please check two things, if the pan is evenly hot and greased well. Trying adding onions to the bottom to see if it works. Thanks for your feedback 😊
hi your tips are vey useful. Just one question can we apply some other oil instead of coconut oil as i don't have edible coconut oil.Plz reply. I would appreciate.Thanks.
Thanks 💕 yes, you can use other oils.
Yum Yum.... I will get a cast iron Dosa pan right away .....
Super !! Want proportion of rice and dal for the golden brown dosa please 🙂
I use 3.5 idli rice and 0.5 urad dal + handful of poha and a tbsp of fenugreek seed for my idli dosa batter combo. For crispy dosa I suggest you omit poha and add extra 0.5 cup raw rice 😊
Great Video. Can I use this exact pot for roti? They dont sell a lot of tawas near me
Yes. And thanks 😊
Useful tips. Will try now for my new iron dosa skillet.
Do try and let me know
Thanks it worked for me. Just wanted to know whether I will have to season it again for 20 mins the next time I make dosas( I mean after wash) or it's just for the first time?
Thanks for trying this. I am glad it worked out well for you. Not necessary, Just scrub the corners and use mild soap.
Dont forget to heat you pan on low flame for atleast 10 mins before pouring batter
Thank you, great instructions.. is the 20 min heating of the oiled pan only required once, right?
Every time you season the pan. Thanks
That was an awesome video . Your dosa batter looked heavenly. Could you please share the recipe
Check out the link for dosa batter recipe here.
www.prashainkitchen.com/recipes/2012/02/normal-dosa.html?rq=Idli
It's an Old post. Ignore the images. But the Proportion I use is 4 ( idli rice) to 1 1/3 urad dal.
Very well explained and dry.Thanks. God bless you.
Thanks 😊
Hi, thanks for the video, dosas came out great. When we wash the pan with salt and are done with seasoning. Before use, when I apply oil and wipe it, I get this brownish black residue. I have seen it in your video as well. Is it safe to use ?
It's the oil that we seasoned with. It is should get better with each use. Thanks
Hi mam. .saw your vdo today ..liked it..i m punajbi but love south Indian food. .confused between buying cast iron and non stick dosa tawa. .please help me which is better and the brand name also. .can we make rava dosa also on cast iron tawa..i need easy tips also for rava dosa. ..please do reply. .
Hello, I suggest if you live in India buy a cast iron pan meant for dosa. They are little heavier than roti tawa. If you like to purchase online, the tawa I used is from a brand called "Lodge" . Please check for the link in the description
@@PrashainKitchen thank you so much dear. .i will definitely get the one..my rava dosa never comes out nicely. .any tips or ratio u can suggest. ..i shall be humbled. ..
Consistency is very important. Batter needs to be thin. Also unlike other dosa, rava dosa takes longer to cook. Make sure to keep the pan low heat and wait for the dosa to get crispy.
Here is the recipe link www.prashainkitchen.com/other-recipes/onion-ghee-rava-roast?rq=Rava%20dosa
@@PrashainKitchen thank you so much dear. ..God bless you. .
Good morning! Just have got your cast iron tawa and have watched your excellent instructional video. My claps for the hand that has poured and made the shapeless batter into a perfectly 'round shaped' dosa:)
just got around to finally using my cast iron lava. used this to re season it! thank you!
Thanks for trying 😊
Nice video Prashanthy . How do you spread oil in the hot pan? What is the blue thing- paper or cloth. ?
+Harini Gurusamy hi, thanks 😊 yes, it's a cloth, I used Scorth Brite reusable cloth. Paper doesn't work very well on hot surface. Other alternates are silicone brush spreader or oil spray.
Very well explained very useful tips. I have seasoned two Cast Iron Tawas got from local market and those work as good as nonstick.
Thanks for trying😊 I'm glad it worked for you.
Hi I was searching for tips to make morumoru dosa using my new cast iron griddle after my nonstick Tawa got damaged just after 6mnths use on electric glass top. I tried other solutions but yet dosa got stuck to the griddle.. gonna try ur tip today.. thanks a lot
+siva sankari venkatesh Hi, thanks for stopping by. I hope you enjoy crispy dosa like I do. Don't forget to wait until the dosa come out of the pan😊 let me know how it came
Wow, tip is giving amazing results
Thanks for trying and letting me know❤️😊
thank u for this useful information everytime I wasted so much of dosa batter on this iron tawa
+Surya Sunkara thanks for watching. do try and let me know 😊
Thanks Prasha..I followed your instructions and Dosa came really good the way I wanted !! :)
Thanks for trying and letting me know ❤️😊
Do we have to do the 20-min seasoning process every time we make dosa? Or is it only one time after we buy the pan ?
Right after buying. I suggest doing it often until the pan is properly seasoned
@@PrashainKitchen got it. This works like magic. Thank you for this trick.
@@jenijess2010 thanks for trying
Thank you for your detailed instructions from cleaning, seasoning and making the dosa in the iron cast pan. I shall follow your instructions and let you know how it turns out.
Excellent...worked like wonder
Thanks for trying 😊 glad it worked out for you
Hi Thanx for lovely tip. I was reluctant to shift to cast iron tawa after using nonstick for decades. After using Pls advise how do we maintain it till next use. In one of the cast iron brand they advise not to wash after every use.. Is that good.
Hi, if the brand recommends it do follow. But I wash it with warm water and mild soap everytime . I scrub the corners of the pan where oil gets settled. Apply oil and reheat
thank you. it was indeed a success for me today with my new lodge dosa pan
Thank you for taking time to letting me know :) Glad it was helpful❤
Looks nice! So should we season it every time!?
Thanks :) and Yes, if you are washing it. It is recommended to apply oil and maintain the coating. Sometimes when I make phulka's I simply wipe, apply coconut oil.
@@PrashainKitchen please please come up with a phulka making tutorial in cast iron skillet/Tawa. I'm sick of having rice 24*7 in this lock down, lol!
Good seasoning process however I’m interested to know where did you buy the dish’s washer stand. I like it😊
Hi, product by OXO. It's one of my most treasured kitchen products. Has served me well for more than six years now😊 Here is the link - amzn.to/2vsIBGT
Awesome. Thank you.
Do I need to do the same steps everytime I want to eat dosa or is it one time activity. Applying coconut and oil before making dosa
Answer this question prashaji pls. I also waiting for your answer.
Not required u need to do it once only after that I made sure to not wash tava and use water on the hot pan and rub with onion once for every other use
Sorry, somehow this was skipped along with other questions. No need to do full fledge seasoning everytime. Make sure the pan is clean and apply a light coat of oil to prevent rusting. Hope this helps.
Explained so well
Thank you. Glad you liked it ❤️
Nice mam
Witch Brad is best in iron dosa tawa?
Thanks. It's lodge pan
Is "Rock" iron pan good? I bought Rock brand iron cast pan...it was cheapest then lodge...
Amazing. It would be nice if you could also upload a video for a perfect Dosa Batter. Your seems so perfect! Crispy yet soft! Wow!
Definitely. For now , proportion 4 cups idli rice and 1 1/3 cup urad Dal. Also note, this proportion is because I grind in blender.
@@PrashainKitchen Thanks.Also I would like to know how long will the Dosa Tawa stay seasoned after we follow your process? Is it like you do it once and forget about it or has to be done periodically?
It needs to be done periodically. Depending on how often you use Dosa tawa and how well it's maintained in between
@@PrashainKitchen Ok. So if I were to use my Tawa every day and am decent with my maintenence, then how frequently do I repeat the process? Thanks.
I would say monthly
wow very clean way to make dose i like it
+Saakshi Mishra thanks ❤️😊
Seasoning is only for first time or each time when dosa preparation
No need to do it every time. After using each time, just make sure there is no debris. Apply light coat of oil.
Do we have to season it before every single use?? Nisha.
No need to do this detailed seasoning everytime. Just try to wash it clean without debris and apply light coat of oil after pat drying
It's working, Thank you so much 😊
Thanks for trying
Hi, do we need to season d bottom of the pan too? I m worried about the rust...
+vinamrata irraker yes you need to clean and apply oil at the least
You’r Video made my work more simpler for the first time use of my lodge cast iron for dosa, Thanks alot for the video.
Thanks for trying 💕
Hey ! followed the instructions, and to my amazement my jini dosas came out really well. Just made my day. Thank you so much. 😊
Thanks for trying. Glad it worked out for you 🙂
Where did u buy the spatula from
From india. here is something similar from amazon amzn.to/2sEATsU
Using a wodden laddle to lift the dosa? Does the steel help or the wodden one is ok.
Any ladle is ok.what ever works for you
Hi Prasha just tell Im your new subscriber I have had bought same tawa from Meyer but unable to spread dosa even though it's not sticking it get heated fast or what it is same which you have
Each stove top is different. I suggested heating the tawa in lowestest possible setting. Try sprinkling water to check the temperature. If not, please season again before trying.
It really works ......thank u very much for this idea.
I'm glad it was a success 👍 thanks for trying this method 💕😊
This seasoning step is before making dosa or when storing utensils after use
After making dosa. Before using just apply a little oil and let the pan come to heat on low flame.
Very nice video Prasha! 👍🏼😊
Thanks ❤️☺️
Cast iron tawa ko Har bar jab dosa banana ho seasoning karna padta hai kya
Hello do we need to do seasiong very time before use
No need to fully season it. Scrub and make sure there is no debris. Apply a light coat of oil.
Fantastic video & tips 👍🏼👍🏼 thanks! Why have you stopped making videos regularly dear..?!
Hello, thanks very much for your feedback. Life got a little busy. Recently moved and had a little one. Wanted to produce good videos with quality content. So taking time off. I am preparing for making more videos
Prasha in Kitchen oh that’s wonderful , congratulations!! 🎊🎉 Enjoyyyy this beautiful period of motherhood 😊 we’ll be waiting for your videos whenever you’re ready to post them
The heat should be in between 2-3 while making dosa’s also??
Yes, slow cooking
Superb!! worked like a charm. Thank you so much :)
Thanks for trying 😊
Thank you so much. This is so helpful !
Should we heat the tawa for 20 mins every time or when we buy before starting cooking once heating tawa for 20 mins is it enough, please reply?
Do it While seasoning. Thanks
Did you use induction cooktop or regular flame burner type cooktop.
I use it on flame type and my dosa is always roasted more from the Centre of tawa. Any remedy?
I used to cook in electrical coil cook top. Now I have a gas cook top. Just remember to keep the tawa at low heat. I usually keep in low heat and choose wider gas burner
@@PrashainKitchen
Alright will try that.
I start burner n keep it on high flame just before i want to make dosa, now will make it warm on low flame first..!
Thanks
Amit Shrimali, same thing is happening with me. I wish someone had mentioned this about lodge tawa before I bought it. Definitely, there is problem with heat distribution on gas stove.
It really helped..thanx
Glad it helped. Thanks for trying and letting me know 💕😊
That was really helpful video. Thanks 😅
+Maansa Flaunts thanks for watching and glad you find it helpful 😊 do share with anyone who might find it helpful as well.
hi. I have lodge iron pre seasoned skillet. it's new. so should I season it everyday ? if yes for how many days and when should I start making dosa s on it. pls reply.
Hi deepika, I suggest commenting outside thread. Only new comments are notified, Hence late reply. I recommend seasoning it first. Atleast a couple of times. Also start by making paratha with ghee and just rinse it before making dosa.
What about regular maintenance. I hope we don't have to season every time we use it. Just leave it unwashed so that it stays seasoned forever?
Wash without debris and apply light coating of oil.
Did you make your own dosa batter or used a pre-made one?
Mostly at home. Please check the recipe in my blog. Thanks
@@PrashainKitchen Perfect, thank you! 😊 Will check it out!
Should this tawa be dedicated only for making dosas or can it also be used for making chapathis?
Thanks for your feedback 😊 I often use it for most dishes. Not dedicated just for dosa
@@PrashainKitchen Okay. Yesterday was the first day my cook poured a multigrain batter dosa upon the well re-seasoned taw, but for reasons unknown, she couldn't get out a good one...she used the bad old 'non-stick' tawa. I hope we will be able to churn out better dosas in future.
It is all trial and error, double check the tawa heat some Dosa require more time to cook evenly.
@@PrashainKitchen Yes, yes. My wife has been 'researching' as to how to season cast iron tawas and has 'studied' other RUclips videos. Based upon her 'research' she did some kind of seasoning with oil and onions to your tawa. Our cook has absented from work last two days and hopefully, if she turns up today for work, we might be able to eat dosas prepared on your cast iron tawa:)
Can u pls share d brand of cast iron dosa tawa dear.
Lodge from Amazon
Very well made video!
Super explanation 👌👌👌
Thank you ❤️🙂
very nice n helpful
Thanks
This worked wonders on my new cast iron pan. The first 4 dosas came out perfect but then on its sticking again. How often do we have to do this procedure to the pan?
Keep the heat low, and don't apply oil before pouring dosa
No need to season Everytime as long as the Dosa is not sticking. Just clean with little soap and apply very little oil to avoid rust. Thanks
hi thank you so much I tried today it came out very well.
Hi, I am glad it came out well. Thanks for trying 😊
thank you so much upload more kitchen tips
I will 💕😊
Thank you so much
After first dosa how do you cool down the tawa for the second dosa batter to not stick when spreading.Since it's a cast iron heat retains so how does it cool off fast.Do you apply water and is it good for tawa.
That's the reason to maintain the low temperature throughout. If you still feel the need to reduce temperature, sprinkle water and lower the temperature even more
After following your your methods I tried making dosa, but they stuck to the Amazon Basics cast-iron pan. I kept the pan unwashed with oil all over. The next day, after I heated the pain, voila! The pan behaved like non-stick !
I have one question. I used MTR instant dosa mix. As instructed I mixed the mixture, water, and sour curd in 2:2:1 ratio. Kept the mixture in room temp for 3 hours. The dosas came out well, but like pancakes, not crispy. What did I do wrong? When dosas are made normally with fermentationof rice and lentils, curd is not added. Was mixing curd result in soft pancake like dosas ?
Hi I tried it and it turned out great :) could you plz share me your dosa batter recipe too.thanks.
+Lakshmi Ramanathan thanks for trying. I usually do 4 : 1 (idli rice: urad) 😊
Can i use same cast iron tava for making rotis/chapatis?
I have a traditional Indian style iron dosa tawa and lodge. But I often end up using lodge for both roti and dosa when we have company. Although its easier to just have two pans. So clean up and maintainence varies.
hi I bought an iron pan.it's like greased with black color whenever I use it the dish becomes black in color.it looks like an greased one. can u suggest me a solution
+saran ram please wash and season at least 2 to 3 times before using it for the first time. Scrub well with salt to remove the grease and after seasoning several times as shown in the videos enjoy your cookware
Is this a normal bhida tawa or a lodge cast iron tawa that you have seasoned? As lodge cast iron vessels dont need seasoning
It's lodge
@@PrashainKitchen But then lodge cast iron vessels are pre-seasoned
You could have shown seasoning of normal bhida tawa
It's lodge. even pre seasoned pans need to season every often. Thanks
Where can I buy such dosa pan? Any web link? Thanks
Hi, this is from amazon. Brand name is - Lodge . Here is the link amzn.to/2uzHeGd
