Ingredients

• 2 cups Dosa batter
• 3 medium Boiled potatoes
• 1 cup Grated mozzarella cheese
• 1 medium, finely chopped Onion
• 2 finely chopped Green chilies
• 1 inch, minced Ginger
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 8 leaves Curry leaves
• 0.5 teaspoon Mustard seeds
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon Butter

Directions

Step 1

To prepare the potato filling, begin by peeling and mashing the boiled potatoes in a mixing bowl.

Step 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat. Add mustard seeds and allow them to splutter.

Step 3

Add finely chopped onion, minced ginger, and green chilies. Sauté until the onions become translucent.

Step 4

Add curry leaves, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Stir the spices thoroughly to combine with the onion mixture.

Step 5

Add the mashed potatoes to the spice mixture and cook for 3-4 minutes. Adjust seasoning if needed, then set aside.

Step 6

Heat a non-stick dosa tawa (griddle) on medium heat and lightly grease it with a few drops of oil.

Step 7

Pour a ladleful of dosa batter onto the tawa and spread it thinly in a circular motion to form a dosa.

Step 8

Drizzle a little oil around the edges and cook until the underside begins to crisp.

Step 9

Spread a tablespoon of the prepared potato mixture onto one half of the dosa. Sprinkle grated mozzarella cheese over the potato mixture.

Step 10

Once the cheese begins to melt, gently fold the dosa in half over the filling.

Step 11

Brush a small amount of butter on top and cook for an additional minute to achieve a golden-brown finish.

Step 12

Remove the dosa from the tawa and repeat the process with the remaining batter.

Step 13

Serve the cheese and potato dosa hot, accompanied by your favorite coconut chutney or sambar.
