JINI DOSA

It’s been a long time I have posted any dosa recipe on my blog. If you are a regular reader of my blog you would know about my love for idlis and dosas. Today I am sharing a fusion recipe for dosa named as “Jinni Dosa” that tops in the list of dosa that we get.  Jinni Dosa a fusion recipe between the popular South Indian cuisine with the popular street food of Mumbai and is available at various outlets across Mumbai. It is actually very easy to make and requires a few ingredients along with the regular dosa batter. I have used my leftover dosa batter but you can use readymade dosa batter for this recipe. An ideal evening snack recipe which can also be easily extended for late-night dinner or perhaps for a morning breakfast recipe. This has a tangy, cheesy flavour to it and is served in a very peculiar way- standing up top on a plate with more grated cheese added as a garnish. It tastes well when served with schezwan chutney as well.  It’s a Special Dosa for all your loved ones.  

                                 

INGREDIENTS:

1 Cup Dosa Batter

1 tablespoon butter

2 tablespoon finely chopped Onion

2 tablespoon finely chopped Cabbage

2 tablespoon finely chopped Capsicum

1 tablespoon Spring Onion, chopped

2 Green Chillies, finely chopped 

1 tablespoon Schezwan Chutney/ Sauce

1 tablespoon Tomato Ketchup

¼ teaspoon Pav Bhaji Masala

Pinch of Salt

2-3 tablespoon Processed Cheese

METHOD:

STEP 1 – In a mixing bowl, add schezwan chutney, pav bhaji masala, salt and little water and make a thick paste. Keep this aside.

STEP 2 – Prepare the tawa for making dosa. First heat the tawa, sprinkle some water and wipe it up with tissue / kitchen towel.

STEP 3 – Now take a dosa batter in a bowl, add salt and whisk it well. Check the consistency.

STEP 4 – Once the pan/ griddle is heated up, add a ladle-full dosa batter and spread it like regular dosa. Here I have used regular iron tawa.

STEP 5 – Next add some butter and some schezwan chutney mixture prepared in step 1. Spread it well all over the dosa.

STEP 6 – Then add chopped vegetables starting with onion, capsicum, cabbage, chillies and also grated cheese.

STEP 7 – Now cut the dosa using a pizza cutter as shown in the picture. [see notes]

STEP 8 – Roll the pizza stripes as shown.

STEP 9 – Transfer them on a serving plate.

                                        

STEP 10 - Serve it in standing position with some onion, capsicum, spring onion and grated cheese added in.

NOTES: *If you are using non-stick tawa then follow this the procedure given below:

STEP 1 – Do as it is until step number 6. Roast dosa till crispy.

STEP 2 – Avoid cutting directly on tawa. Instead, roll the dosa to other ends

                                   

and transfer on a plate.

STEP 3 – Then cut it into 2-3 pieces as shown in the picture below.

                                   

STEP 4 – Serve it in standing position with some onion, capsicum, spring onion and grated cheese added in.
