Ingredients for dosa's masala
Potatoes (boiled, peeled and cubed) - 500 gm
Onion (sliced) - 1.5 cup
Green chillies (chopped)
Oil - 2 tbsp
Mustard seeds - 1 tsp
Curry leaves - 7
Salt - 2 tsp
Turmeric (powder) - 1/2 tsp
Water - 1/2 cup
Step 1
Wash and soak rice in one container and the dal and fenugreek seeds in another for 5 to 6 hours or overnight.
Step 2
Blend dal to a smooth consistency. After that grind rice too and mix two batters.
Step 6
Now, add salt and enough water to make it into a dropping consistency. Leave to ferment overnight or more depending on the weather.
Step 7
Prepare the dosa's filling by heating a pan and adding mustard seeds, onions, curry leaves, and green chillies and sauteing it on a high flame.
Step 8
Add salt, turmeric, and mashed potatoes to it. Add some water and let it simmer for 5 minutes.
Step 9
Now, heat a tawa and brush oil over it. Splash a little water over it and pour batter onto it, spreading it thin with a circular motion.
Step 10
After spreading the batter evenly, lower the heat and dribble some oil around the edges of the dosa.
Step 11
When the edges start browning a bit, pass a flat spoon under it to ease the dosa off the pan. Now, put the desired filling in the center and fold the two edges over.
