The video begins with Andy Hearnden pouring rice and dal into a container and washing them thoroughly in water. After draining the excess water, he adds the mixture into a blender producing a thick gravy. Yes, the dosa batter is done. After that, in a separate pan, he pours some oil and adds chopped onions, garlic cloves, green chillies, tomatoes, a pinch of salt, a dollop of tamarind sauce and some water. Later, the chef mixes the ingredients in a blender.
In the following step, Andy Hearnden pours oil into another pan where he adds sauteed onions, garlic paste and minutely chopped green chillies. Boiled potatoes go into the mixture and the chef smashes them with his hands. Once done, he gently takes a ladleful of the dosa batter, adds it to the centre of the griddle and spreads it in a circular motion. Mashed potatoes are added in the middle and the golden-brown edges are folded like triangles. Dosa is ready! Witnessing the lip-smacking dish, Pushpek Sidhu started drooling. The same goes for us.
