This is a Bangalore special dish. Bangalore darshinis serve the open masala dosa as a common breakfast item. I have tried to recreate this unique dish by adding some tweaks of my own. This is a lovely dish with butter oozing and the coriander providing the freshness. Hope you all enjoy it!

Steps

1 hr+ overnight fermentation + soaking time 6 hr

1

Soak the rice, urad dal, fenugreek seeds and poha in sufficient water for 6 hours.
2

After 6 hours, grind the rice, poha and dal together into a smooth batter in a mixer grinder. Add salt and keep it covered in a warm place for fermentation for 8-10 hours.
3

Once the batter is fermented, it is ready for use. Mix it well.
4

To make the potato masala, add oil in a pan and let mustard seeds splutter. Add the chopped onions, green chillies and curry leaves and cook till onions are lightly browned.
5

Now add the boiled and mashed potatoes. Add the spices and salt and mix well. Cook for 5 minutes and the masala is ready for use.
6

Now heat a dosa tawa and spread the dosa batter lightly with a ladle. Add a tsp of oil around it and cook for a minute. Now flip the dosa and cook on the other side too by adding a tsp of oil. Flip again, lower the flame and now spread a tsp of garlic red chutney on it. Sprinkle a bit of gunpowder and put a big spoon of potato masala on it. Add the chopped coriander and a big blob of butter. Remove the dosa from the tawa without folding it.
7

Your open masala dosa is ready. Enjoy it with chutney or it tastes wonderful just on its own.
