Masala Dosa

Masala Dosa is on almost everyone’s favorite list. The masala dosa that my mom prepares… my mouth is already watering! I have eaten this since childhood and loved it every single time. I like dosa only if it is accompanied by a great curry or side dish or chutney. The sides has to overpower the dosa, only then its fun and for me the normal coconut chutney is not fun :D Now you know why I love masala dosa :D!!

This dish is prepared in n number of ways. The dosa prepared by different people tastes differently. My friend D’s mother used to prepare awesome dosa but it tasted so different from the one at home. In our college days, I used to frequent her house and aunty prepared some really awesome food. They were routine dishes but her engayi, dosa, vaangibhat, puliogre, bisibeLebhaat are unforgettable!  I think every dosa tastes unique and has got to do with the person spreading the batter on the griddle :D!

The dish tasted so awesome that it left us craving for more though our stomachs could take no more :D. That is when I decided to give this dish a shot.

After coming to bangalore, the first thing I probably did was to google for Kolhapuri Misal. My search ended on Sia’s blog Monsoon Spice. [Read the rest of this entry...]
