All day we were traveling in a bus to take a panoramic view of the countryside of Tamilnadu and in the end having dosas ,couldn't get better than this for us.
Their special cuisine was Mugapudi masala dosa.Since I ate it I was planning to do it at home .i came across this groovy recipe which made me to try immediately.
Ingredients for Mulga pudi,
Urad daal-1/4 cup
Channa daal-1/4 cup
Moong daal-2 tbsp
Tamarind-1 tbsp
Coriander seeds-1 tbsp
Salt-1 tsp
Red chilli powder-1 tsp( spice it according to your taste)
Curry leaves-1 sprig( leaves only)
Asafoetida-1/4 tsp
Roast all of the spices in a pan till golden brown and make it into a powder ( I used coffee bean grinder from target to grind it into a fine powder)
Ingredients for the batter,
Uncooked rice (sona masoori rice) -3 cups
Urad daal-3/4 cup
Methi seeds-1 tsp
Soak all of the ingredients overnight or 8 hours and then grind it into a batter with a little water( I divide the soaked ingredients in 3 batches and girnd each batch with almost 1/2 a cup of water).Ferment it for 8 hours.Add 1 tbsp of salt and a little water to it after the batter is fermented.
Pour batter on the heated griddle and spread the batter in circular ways to make dosas,spread ghee/oil all over.
After you start seeing little brownish color,sprinkle the Mulgapudi on the dosa and roll it into a log shaped
Serve hot with Potato Curry.
Once the griddle/tava is heated put the stove on low flame ,add some water.Let the water evaporate and then spread the dosa batter.After spreading put the flame back on slightly more than medium until the dosa is browned and then remove the dosa from the tava..Repeat this for each dosa.
Once the griddlw/tava is hot put the stove on
low flame.Sprinkle some water .After the water evaporates
por in 2 ladle full of beatter and spread in circular patterns.
Pour in oil/ghee and the masala powder.
As the dosa starts to get browned,scrape
off from all the sides.
Roll both sides into log shape.Serve with chutney.
