Ingredients
- 1 cup Prolicious Vrat Atta
- 2 medium boiled potatoes
- 1 inch ginger
- 2 green chillies
- Sendha namak, to taste
- Water, as required
- 1–2 teaspoons ghee for cooking
Method
Step 1: Boil the Potatoes
Boil the potatoes until soft. Peel and allow them to cool slightly.
Step 2: Prepare the Batter
In a mixer jar, add Prolicious Vrat Atta, boiled potatoes, ginger, green chillies, sendha namak, and water.
Blend until you get a smooth, lump-free batter. The consistency should be slightly thinner than pancake batter so it spreads easily on the pan.
Step 3: Cook the Dosa
Heat a non-stick pan or tawa and lightly grease it with ghee.
Pour a ladleful of batter onto the pan and gently spread it into a thin circle.
Cook on medium heat until the bottom becomes golden and crisp.
Flip carefully and cook the other side for another 2–3 minutes until fully cooked.
Step 4: Serve Hot
Serve immediately with vrat coconut chutney, peanut chutney, plain yogurt, or mint curd dip.
