Note: If you use rice flour, you will not be spreading the batter like we do for the normal dosa. The batter should be thin enough to flow and spread itself on the tawa and form shape on its own. You can turn the skillet around to help form a shape without using a ladle.

Note: If you add whole wheat flour then you can make it similar to the dosa consistency, where the batter can be spread with a ladle. You will need to add a little less water than required for the rice flour, so the batter is a little thicker. The Gluten in the whole wheat will enable the batter to thicken, thus helping it to spread easily.
