Mysore Masala Dosa is a popular breakfast dish in the town of Udupi in Karnataka. It is thin crepes made with rice and urad dal batter spread with spicy chutney and potato masala. It is slightly different from my masala dosa. This dish is usually enjoyed with some coconut chutney and sambar.
Heat oil in a pan, add in mustard, urad dal, asafoetida and curry leaves. Let them sizzle. Add in ginger, green chillies and saute for 30 seconds.
Add in chopped onions, carrots and saute for 2 minutes. Add in salt and turmeric powder and saute for 30 seconds. Pour in ¼ cup of water and mix well, cover and cook for 3 minutes until carrots is soft.
Add in boiled mashed potatoes and mix well. Let the potatoes cook for 2 minutes until it is heated through. Garnish with coriander leaves. Potato filling ready to serve.
Now to make the red chutney, heat oil in a kadai. Add in roasted chana dal, dry red chillies, garlic and curry leaves. Saute them for 3 to 5 minutes until golden.
Once the mixture is cool enough to handle. Add in salt and tamarind. Pour little water and make it into a smooth chutney. Red Chutney done.
Now to make dosa, spread ½ cup of dosa batter slightly thick on a heated tawa, drizzle oil all around the dosa and spoon some red chutney over it and spread it evenly using a spatula. Now spoon some potato masala over it. Fold it and serve.
