Equipment

Ingredients

For the dosa:

  • 1 cup besan (chickpea flour)
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt (adjust to your taste)
  • 1 recipe potato masala (see notes for recipe link)

Instructions

  • Place the whole wheat flour, rice flour, baking soda and salt in a bowl. Whisk to mix. Add enough water to make a runny batter, the consistency of a crepe batter.
  • Heat a cast-iron skillet or a non-stick skillet. Ladle out ⅓rd cup batter in the center of the skillet and using the rounded bottom of a ladle spread the batter quickly in an outward, circular movement. (Watch my video on making dosa to see exactly how this is done). You can sprinkle some oil at the edges, if you want to, or spray the edges of the dosa with cooking spray (do so carefully by lowering the flame if using a gas stove).
  • Once the top is dry, carefully remove the dosa to a plate using a thin spatula. Place a few tablespoons of potato sabzi in the center of the dosa and fold the dosa over. Serve immediately.
