How to Make Lychees with Chocolate Sauce (Stepwise Photos)

Method

1. Remove seeds from lychees and pat them dry between kitchen papers. This process is done so that the chocolate gets coated on it easily.
2. To prepare chocolate sauce, half-fill water in a deep non-stick pan and heat. Place a smaller non-stick pan on it, put chocolate and ghee in it and heat till the chocolate melts, stirring continuously.
3. Stuff each lychee with a cherry.
4. Once the chocolate has melted, hold each lychee with a tong and dip into the hot chocolate till it gets coated completely.
5. Place the lychees on plate till chocolate sets. Garnish with a cherry and serve immediately.

Thank you for the amazing instructions.

I have success w/ my dosa but does not last long stored in the refrigerator.

Maybe I am fermenting for too long, or add the salt before the rise?

I also was wondering if it is important to blend separately or can it be blended all together?

Hi Chaitrali,
Yes, cut down the fermentation time and add salt only to the required portion at the time of making the dosa. Also storing in smaller containers just enough for a day helps. Once the batter in a larger container is disturbed (by stirring or scooping out a little etc), I feel it turns sour faster. You can blend them together if you want. But we do it separately because we want the dal batter to become fluffy and the rice batter slightly coarse. Fluffy dal batter makes the dosas light and coarse rice batter makes them extra crispy without making the dosas hard. Hope this helps
