Mysore Dosa Garlic Chutney
Dosa slicked with red garlic chutney before the potato filling goes in, Mysore's fiery flagship. The batter does the work; the pan does the magic. Classic sides: molaga podi with sesame oil, and a bowl of sambar.
Ingredients
- Saltto taste
- Ginger1-inch piece
- Green Chili2
- Ghee3 tbsp
- Rice3/4 cup
- Potato3 medium, cubed
- Mustard Seeds1/2 tsp
- Curry Leaves1 sprig
- Asafoetidaa pinch
- Red Chili Powder1 tsp
- Coconut Oil2 tbsp
Instructions
- 1
Soak the rice and urad dal (with fenugreek seeds) separately for 4-6 hours, then grind each to a smooth batter with cold water, combine and ferment overnight.
- 2
Stir the fermented batter gently; it should be thick but pourable. Add a splash of water only if needed.
- 3
Grease the pan lightly with a cut onion dipped in oil — the old non-stick trick.
- 4
Spoon the batter in, swirl or shape quickly, and let it set undisturbed for two minutes.
- 5
Cook till the underside is gold and lacy and the top loses its raw look, then flip or remove; serve immediately — they wait for no one.
Chef's tip
A pinch of sugar in the batter deepens the golden colour.
