if making for vrat, make changes in ingredients and method as given in description box and captions
ingredients and quantities are given in the description box
let's have a look
oil
1 cup kuttu ka atta/buckwheat flour
2 medium sized potatoes, boiled, peeled and mashed
2 tbsp yogurt
1/2 tsp cumin seeds
1/2 tsp mustard seeds (skip if making for fast)
1/2 tsp red chilli powder (skip if making for fast)
1/4 tsp turmeric powder (skip if making for fast)
1 tsp salt (use sendha namak/rock salt)
1/2 tsp coriander powder (skip if making for fast)
curry leaves (skip if making for fast)
cilantro (skip if making for fast)
1 cup water or as required to make batter
first we will prepare the filling for the dosa
keep a pan on low heat and add 1-2 tbsp oil.
when oil becomes warm put in the cumin seeds and mustard seeds and saute until they crackle
then put in the curry leaves, red chili powder, coriander powder, 1/2 tsp salt, and turmeric powder
Stir cook for about 1/2 a minute
then put in the mashed potatoes and mix well
now add the cilantro and stir cook for 2-3 minutes
when it is done remove and keep aside
we will prepare the dosa batter now
to the kuttu flour add 1/2 tsp salt and yogurt, and mix well
put water little by little and make a, little less than medium thick, flowing batter
we used 1 cup water. you may need more or less as per the flour you have
this is the consistency you should aim for
let the batter rest for 15 minutes. after 15 minutes we will prepare the dosa
we will prepare the dosa now. check the consistency of the batter and thin it if needed with some water
Keep dosa pan on medium heat
Clean the pan with a cut onion (if making for vrat do not clean with onion but use a tissue paper)
when the pan is hot pour a ladleful and half of batter on it and spread it around in a circular motion
then spread about a tbsp of oil around and over the dosa
tilt the pan a bit to get the oil move around the dosa
let it cook until the underside is a bit brown
then flip the dosa
repeat the process as before but do not brown this side, just cook until done
if the side is not yet cooked flip it back again and cook a bit more as we are doing
when done flip it over on the brown side and put some filling on it
this much batter will make 4 to 5 dosas hence divide the filling into as many parts beforehand
spread the filling as shown and then fold the dosa
and transfer to a plate
similarly prepare the rest of the dosas. we are showing you a quick recap of the process
clean the dosa pan after making each dosa and grease it lightly with a little oil
do not use water as it releases a lot of steam
spread the batter after pouring on the pan  & cook the dosa
then spread the filling and fold the dosa
we have prepared 2 dosas as shown here and will make the rest later
we are serving them with coconut chutney
the chutney is homemade. you can check its recipe video link on the screen and prepare it
