Andhra bhojanam (Aloo Dosa or Potato Dosa

Preparation Time: 10 mins
Cooking Time : 5 mins
Serves : 8 medium size dosas

Ingredients Needed

Potatoes - 2 big
Rice flour - 1.5 cups
Curd / Yoghurt - 1 cup
Coriander Leaves - 1/2 cup
Green chillies, finely chopped - 4
Cumin Seeds - 1 tsp
Salt to taste
Water for making batter
Oil for cooking

Method to prepare:

Boil the potatoes to soft. Potatoes get cooked well if you cut them into half and pressure cook. Once done, let it cool, then peel, mash and keep that aside. I used pav bajji masher but any dal masher also will do. Just make sure there are no chunks.

In a bowl, take the rice flour, curds, Green chillies, Cumin seeds, Coriander leaves and salt. Mix well. Then add the mashed potatoes and sufficient water to achieve a dosa like consistency. Using your hands, mix well to ensure no lumps are formed. If you have a blender, you can blend the flour with mashed potatoes with water and then add the rest of the ingredients.

Now we are set to make the dosas! Heat a tawa, smear oil and once the pan is hot, pour a ladleful of batter in the center and spread like the regular dosa. If this doesn't work out, you can drop in circle, then try to make a dosa from it.

Get the flame to medium, so that it gets cooked well. If its not cooked fully, you will not be able to flip it to the other side. So sprinkle oil and wait till its cooked well. Then flip to the other side and cook its done.

This goes well with coconut or ground nut chutney. Even Podi will be great.
