Ingredients
Pancake batter
- 3 cups basmati rice
- 1 cup urad dahl
- 1/4 teaspoon fenugreek seed
- salt to taste
- 1 bunch spinach
- 1 diced large russet Potatoes
- 1 tablespoon ghee
- 1/2 medium onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon fenugreek seeds
- 2 teaspoons garam masala
Instructions
Soak parboiled rice, fenugreek seeds and urad dahl in water overnight.
The following day put entire mixture including the water in blender and blend at high speed until it is nice and smooth.
Let the batter ferment for one day. I put mine in the oven overnight.
Cook the potatoes in a steamer. Drain Set aside.
In frying pan sauté in ghee the fenugreek seed until they turn brown. Do over cook this or the seeds turn bitter. Add the onion, garlic and sauté until golden brown. Now add the spices and sauté for a few minutes. Add the spinach, and add salt.
In a pancake pan - use ghee and put in pan. Ladle rice mixture in pan and cook until the bubbles form and become dry. Turn over. Be sure the batter is not too thick. It should be on the thin side. Put spinach mixture on dosas and roll up like a crepe.
Serve with homemade mango chutney.

I first had this dish in New York City in 1977. My friend Kathie took me to this Southern Indian restaurant. It was the first time I had Southern Indian food.
