Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Urid dal
- 0.5 cup Chana dal
- 0.5 cup Moong dal
- 1 cup Rice
- 0.5 cup Quinoa
- 0.5 teaspoon Fenugreek seeds
- 2 cups Water
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 large Potatoes
- 1 medium Onion
- 2 pieces Green chilies
- 1 inch Ginger
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Mustard seeds
- 10 leaves Curry leaves
- 2 tablespoons Coriander leaves
Instructions
Rinse the urid dal, chana dal, moong dal, rice, and quinoa thoroughly and soak them together in a large bowl with 2 cups of water for at least 4 to 5 hours.
Drain the soaked mixture and blend it with fenugreek seeds and 1 cup of fresh water to a smooth batter. The consistency should be similar to pancake batter.
Add salt to the batter, mix well, and let it ferment in a warm place overnight or for about 8-10 hours until it doubles in volume.
Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender. Peel and mash them once cool.
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan, add mustard seeds, and let them splutter. Add curry leaves, chopped onions, green chilies, and grated ginger. Saute until onions turn translucent.
Add turmeric powder and mashed potatoes to the pan, mix well, and cook for 2-3 minutes. Adjust seasoning and garnish with chopped coriander leaves. Set the masala aside.
Preheat a non-stick pan or a griddle, grease lightly with oil. Pour a ladleful of fermented batter in the center and spread it in circular motions to form a thin dosa.
Add a drizzle of oil around the edges. Cook until the dosa turns golden brown and crispy. Place a spoonful of the prepared potato masala in the center.
Fold the dosa over the masala, and serve hot with chutney and sambar.
