    For Making Dosa:
  • Wash and soak the rice, fenugreek seeds and urad dal in about 8 cups of water for 8 hours or overnight.
  • Then drain the water and add the rice and urad dal into blender, along with the fenugreek seeds and poha. Add enough water and grind it into a smooth batter.
  • Leave this batter to ferment for another 6 to 7 hours.
  • When ready to make dosa, heat a pan and pour a ladleful of the batter onto to the centre of the pan. Spread the batter around the pan by spreading it in clockwise direction until it forms a nice circle. Drizzle a little oil around the dosa edges. Cook for a minute or two, and then turn over and cook on the other side. Take out the dosa on to a plate.
  • For making the Potato Filling:
  • Peel and boil potatoes. Mash them lightly with a fork or spoon. Peel and slice onions.
  • Heat a tbsp. of oil in a pan. Now add chana dal, urad dal, cumin seeds and mustard seeds. When the seeds splutter, add asafoetida and the sliced onions, curry leaves, chopped green chillies and ginger.
  • Saute for a couple of minutes until onions are lightly golden but not brown.
  • Now add the lightly mashed/crumbled potatoes along with turmeric and salt to taste. Mix well and add fresh chopped cilantro/coriander.
