For the dosa batter:

• 1/4 cup urad dal (split black lentils)
• 1/2 tsp cumin seeds
• Salt to taste
• Water (for consistency)
For the stuffing:
• 1/2 cup shredded cabbage
• 1/4 cup grated carrots
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 1 small tomato, finely chopped
• 2 tbsp green chutney (optional)
• 1 tsp red chili powder
• 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
• 1 tsp garam masala
• Salt to taste
• 1 tbsp oil
For assembling:
• 1 tbsp butter
• 1 tbsp cheese (optional)
• 1-2 tbsp of chutney (green or tamarind)
Instructions to Make Jini Dosa
1. Prepare the Dosa Batter:
- Rinse the rice and urad dal thoroughly. Soak them for 4-6 hours or overnight.
- Grind the soaked ingredients together into a smooth batter, adding water as needed for a smooth consistency.
- Add cumin seeds and salt. Let the batter ferment for 8-12 hours, depending on the temperature in your area.
2. Make the Stuffing:
- Heat oil in a pan. Add onions and sauté until golden brown.
- Add tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes. Then, add cabbage, carrots, and spices (red chili powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, and salt).
- Cook everything together for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables soften and the flavors meld. Set aside to cool.
3. Cooking the Dosa:
- Heat a non-stick pan or tawa on medium heat. Grease it lightly with oil or butter.
- Pour a ladle of dosa batter onto the pan and spread it in a circular motion, creating a thin layer.
- Let it cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges start turning golden brown. Optionally, sprinkle cheese over the dosa at this stage for a creamy texture.
- Flip the dosa carefully and cook for another minute.
4. Assemble the Jini Dosa:
- Once the dosa is crispy and golden, spread a layer of green chutney (optional) on one side.
- Place a generous amount of the veggie stuffing onto the dosa. Fold the dosa carefully to enclose the filling inside.
- Drizzle butter on top and serve hot, with additional chutney on the side.
Batter consistency: Ensure the batter is smooth and slightly runny for crispy dosas. Too thick, and it might not spread evenly on the tawa.
Crispy Texture: For extra crispiness, let the dosa cook longer on medium heat before flipping it.
Stuffing Variations: You can experiment with different fillings like paneer, potatoes, or even a mix of sautéed vegetables.
Lykkers, making Jini Dosa is an enjoyable and easy way to jazz up your dosa game with a deliciously crispy and flavorful treat. The combination of a crispy dosa with a savory stuffing is sure to satisfy your taste buds and impress anyone you serve it to.
Whether it's for a cozy breakfast or a fun snack, this dish is guaranteed to become a new favorite. Enjoy preparing, and don't forget to share it with friends and family! Happy cooking!
