I had my boyfriend try and guess what was in them, and he had no clue. <BR/><BR/>Mine looked almost exactly the same as the ones in your photos. I had trouble spreading the batter, though, due to the onion pieces. Also, is this supposed to be crispy in the middle? I was able to get it crispy on the outside, but it was very soft inside (not quite "uncooked" but soft nonetheless). I'm wondering if this is just due to the nature of the watermelon rind (since I've had a similar experience with cucumber dosa). Oh, and I also soaked the rice overnight, using 1/2 c. iddli rice and 1/2 c. sona masuri rice -- just in case anyone is looking for a variation.<BR/><BR/>I also made the ginger-coconut chutney, which was just superb. I plan on serving that many more times in the future. And it paired perfectly with the watermelon dosa. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for another wonderful recipe. Will let you know as soon as I try more. <BR/><BR/>-amandaAmandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02405572851738223449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34998002.post-12536220568929117002007-07-21T08:57:00.000+01:002007-07-21T08:57:00.000+01:00Great things you share about watermelon...We also make curry form his white portion.:)Kajalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12686852576611053533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34998002.post-31777363773647230042007-07-20T16:32:00.000+01:002007-07-20T16:32:00.000+01:00Never knew watermelon can be cooked in so many ways...thanks for sharing...next time will not waste any part of it....:)<BR/><BR/>Srivalli<BR/>www.cooking4allseasons.blogspot.comSrivallihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03232972178979601709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34998002.post-12497508456932960532007-07-20T15:30:00.000+01:002007-07-20T15:30:00.000+01:00A very innovative recipe supriya.
