Ingredients
- 4 cups Dosa batter (rice and lentil)
- 4 medium Potatoes
- 1 medium Onion
- 1 tsp Mustard seeds
- 1 tsp Urad dal (split black lentils)

Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.
Instructions
- 1Place the 4 medium Potatoes in a medium pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain the water, let the potatoes cool slightly, then peel and lightly mash them in a bowl.
- 2Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a 25.4 cm skillet over medium-high heat (176.7°C / 175°C). Add the 1 tsp Mustard seeds and 1 tsp Urad dal. Cook for about 30 seconds, until the mustard seeds begin to splutter. Add the 10 Curry leaves and cook for another 10 seconds until fragrant.
- 3Add the 1 medium Onion, chopped, to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown. Add the 0.5 tsp Turmeric powder and the lightly mashed potatoes. Stir everything together until well combined, then season with salt to your preference.
- 4Heat a non-stick griddle or large skillet over medium-high heat (190.6°C / 190°C). Lightly grease the surface with vegetable oil.
- 5Pour one ladleful of the 4 cups Dosa batter onto the hot griddle and quickly spread it into a thin, even circle, about 20.32-25.4 cm in diameter. Drizzle about 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil around the edges of the dosa.
- 6Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and the edges look crispy. Carefully lift an edge to check the color. Flip the dosa and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side.
- 7Place about 1/4 of the potato filling mixture in the center of the cooked dosa. Fold the dosa in half or roll it up around the filling.
- 8Serve the prepared dosa immediately with the 4 cups Sambar and 1 cup Coconut Chutney.
