JINI DOSA
If you are in Mumbai and have not gone to Anand dosawala in Parle, then your visit is incomplete.
Anand Dosawala outside Mithibai college is a famous spot. They are famous for their variety of dosas, grilled sandwiches, and Vada Pav. One of the most popular dosas on their menu is the JINI DOSA. I tried this recipe and I kid you not, this tastes like Anand’s Jini Dosa. I hope you guys enjoy this recipe and if you do, please don’t forget to tag me at @spizerita

Directions:
Tomato chutney:
- Blend all the ingredients of tomato chutney in a smooth paste and keep aside. (you can make this a day ahead if you like)
Dosa:
- Heat a Tawa or a nonstick pan. Grease the pan with oil and gently wipe it with a paper towel.
- Keep the tawa on low flame. Take a ladle full of the dosa and spread it on the tawa in a circular motion.
- Once the dosa looks a little cooked, spread some butter. And let it cook for 30 secs.
- Now spread some ketchup, tomato chutney, and schezwan sauce on the dosa. (use only a little since you will be adding more in the next step).
- Now add ½ tbsp each of chopped cabbage, bell papers, onions. Add ½ tsp of each: tomato chutney, ketchup, and schezwan sauce add a pinch of pav bhaji masala, cilantro and mix everything well with the help of a spatula.
- Let it cook for 30-45 secs on medium-low flame. Shred some cheese over.
- Let the dosa become a little crispy.
- Now you can serve it in 2 ways.
- You can cut dosa directly on the tawa in 3-4 pieces and then roll them up and serve it on the plate OR you can roll the dosa off the tawa and then cut into pieces and serve.
- Place the dosa on a plate and sprinkle some more cheese.
- Serve it with some tomato chutney and coconut chutney on the side.
