On a recent evening out ( quite rare with a kid hanging around ), I happened to sample some mind blowing dosa varieties in Bengaluru. Made me wonder why i hadn't tried out this South indian-Chinese fusion earlier.
Though I can never ever get tried of this crispy golden delicacy, some variety is always welcome.
The tiny roadside stall goes by the name of '99 Dosas' and has a quite a few branches around the city I am told. And with a big crowd surrounding this place, it seems to be very popular. Sometimes it takes upto 30-40 minutes to get your order but the wait is quite worth it. I particularly liked the 'Cheese Schezwan' one. Read on for the recipe:
Preparation Time - 15 mins
Cooking - Heat 2 tsp oil in a wok. Add the onions and fry till light brown. Add GG paste and fry for 2 mins.
Add the mashed potato along with salt. Fry for 2-3 mins. Remove from wok and allow to cool a bit.
Heat a dosa tawa. Season with just a bit of oil.
Pour 1/2 cup batter and spread with a circular motion into a thin dosa.
Drizzle a little oil on sides. Put 1 tsp butter in the center and spread it. Put some schezwan sauce on top and spread it all over the dosa.
Add half of the potato mixture. Top with the chopped carrots, spring onions and peas.
Sprinkle the grated cheese. Mix it a bit with the other ingredients.
Fold over and serve hot with chutney.
Note: I have used more of the potato mixture as compared to veggies. One can adjust the proportion as per one's liking.
