Hello indiaunite community friends,
How are you? I hope you are happy. IndiaUnite holds a contest every week, which is very amazing and interesting. I try to participate in the contest whenever I can.
The subject of this week's contest no #14 in the India United community, link
๐๐๐๐ฅ ๐๐ค ๐ช๐ ๐ฆ๐ฃ ๐๐๐ง๐ ๐ฃ๐๐ฅ๐ ๐๐ ๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐จ๐๐ช?" is quite interesting. My favorite food is dosa, not biryani. Biryani is my daughters' favorite dish. I have liked dosa since childhood and make it once every 10-15 days. My husband and children also enjoy dosa very much. I make various types of dosa, such as plain dosa, masala dosa, and even sweet dosa by adding sugar to the batter.I don't know why I like dosa, but I like it a lot. Dosa is very light to eat. Its taste is amazing. It is also easy to make. I love dosa because it's super tasty.The crispy outside with the soft inside is just perfect. Plus, the chutneys and sambhar that come with it add so much flavor

My father used to work in a steel plant, so we lived in a colony for the plant workers. There, we had people from different states and religions living together. One South Indian family lived there, and their daughter Usha was my friend. We used to play together. It was like the TV serial "Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah." My mother learned how to make dosa and idli from a South Indian aunty there. Every Sunday, my mother made dosa for breakfast. Gradually, we also learned how to make it. When I got married and moved to Kanpur, I made masala dosa once. Everyone loved it because no one knew how to make dosa here. Thatโs why my breakfast dish became a hit. When my father-in-law ate dosa for the first time, he was so happy that he gave me a reward. Now, my children also love eating dosa, and they prefer my homemade dosa over the ones from the market. They eat dosa for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.On Sunday, I made dosa. So, let me share the recipe with you all.

Pour a ladleful of batter onto the center of the pan and spread it out in a circular motion to form a thin dosa.

Drizzle oil around the edges and cook until the dosa is golden and crispy.

Spread 1 tablespoon of potato curry over the dosadosa. You can add paneer on top of potato curry. Alternatively, you can also add cheese. Then fold the dosa and serve it with sambar and chutney.




I made dosa on Sunday, so I am able to share the recipe with you. I hope you will like my recipe. I have always liked dosa, and I always will.
