Ingredients

  • Rice - 1 cup
  • 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

  1. Soak the rice, urad dal, chana dal, and fenugreek seeds in water for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  2. Drain the soaked ingredients and blend them with enough water to form a smooth batter. The batter should have a pouring consistency.
  3. 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.
  4. Once fermented, add salt to the batter and mix well.
  5. In a separate bowl, combine the mashed potato, chopped onion, green chili, coriander leaves, and cumin seeds. Mix thoroughly to form the filling.
  6. Heat a non-stick skillet or tawa over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil.
  7. Pour a ladleful of dosa batter onto the skillet and spread it into a thin circle. Drizzle a little oil around the edges.
  8. Cook the dosa for 2-3 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown and crispy.
  9. Place a portion of the potato filling in the center of the dosa, fold it over, and cook for another minute.
  10. Serve hot with coconut chutney or sambar.
