Ingredients

- Split urad dal (black gram) - 1/4 cup
- Chana dal (Bengal gram) - 1/4 cup
- Fenugreek seeds - 1/2 teaspoon
- Salt - to taste
- Water - as needed
- Oil - for cooking
- Potato - 1 medium, boiled and mashed
- Onion - 1 small, finely chopped
- Green chili - 1, finely chopped
- Coriander leaves - 2 tablespoons, chopped
- Cumin seeds - 1/2 teaspoon
Steps
- Soak the rice, urad dal, chana dal, and fenugreek seeds in water for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Drain the soaked ingredients and blend them with enough water to form a smooth batter. The batter should have a pouring consistency.
- Transfer the batter to a bowl, cover it, and let it ferment in a warm place for 8-12 hours or until it doubles in size.
- Once fermented, add salt to the batter and mix well.
- In a separate bowl, combine the mashed potato, chopped onion, green chili, coriander leaves, and cumin seeds. Mix thoroughly to form the filling.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or tawa over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil.
- Pour a ladleful of dosa batter onto the skillet and spread it into a thin circle. Drizzle a little oil around the edges.
- Cook the dosa for 2-3 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown and crispy.
- Place a portion of the potato filling in the center of the dosa, fold it over, and cook for another minute.
- Serve hot with coconut chutney or sambar.
