similar to the above recipe is neer dosa(recipe from karnataka)or tender coconut dosa and the recipe for the same is : rice – 1 cup,Fresh grated coconut – 1/4 Tablespoons, Salt – To taste Grind soaked rice and fresh grated coconut in the mixer/grinder adding water in steps to a very fine consistency, Add water to the ground dosa batter and bring it to the pouring consistency so that when it is poured on the dosa griddle it should splash well on the griddle to get very thin dosas and peanut chutney is the combination to this dosa..:-)
