Here is the Potato bhaji....

Potato bhaji mix makes 2 cups (left over can be eaten with plain parantha for breakfast)

Ingredients
3 large potatoes, peeled and boiled

1 teaspoon mustard seeds

5 to 6 fresh curry leaves

4 green chillies, chopped

5 small onions, chopped

a pinch of turmeric powder (haldi)

2 tablespoons grated coconut

juice of 1 lemon

1/4 cup chopped coriander

2 tablespoons oil

salt and hot chillies to taste

Procedure

Mash the potatoes and keep aside

Heat the oil in a pan and add the mustard seeds to it

When the mustard seeds start to crackle, add curry leaves, green chillies and onions and stir till the onions turn golden brown.

Add the mashed potatoes, turmeric, coconut, lemon juice, coriander, salt and hot red grounded pepper and mix well. Normally, I will make a small space in the center of the pan and add a small amount of oil and put turmeric powder and stir to get the yellow color out of the turmeric and mix thoroughly.

Remove from the heat and keep aside for the Dosa preparation.

Sorry guys, I don't use word. I am great with Excel....I am not good at formatting in word...so please take how I deliver....thanks for your understanding...

Gujarati Khandvi Recipe

Ingredients:
2 Cups of Besan
4 Cups of Buttermilk
Pinch of Haldi Powder
Salt to Taste
1 Tablespoon oil
Seasoning:
3 Tablespoon oil
1 Tablespoon Mustard seeds
Pinch of Hing
1-2 Tablespoon Shredded Coconut
2 Green Chillies chopped
2 Tablespoon Coriander if desired
Buttermilk
In order to make buttermilk, you will need yogurt and water. Mix both together until the buttermilk is nice and thin, if its too sour you can add some milk. But only make as much as needed.
Preparation
Take aluminum foil and cut two big rectangles and paste it on the table with tape. Take a small flat bowl, put some oil on the back of it and leave it on the side.
Mix all the ingredients together and form a batter, make sure there are no lumps.
Take a non-stick pan and hit the oil, than add the batter
Stir till the batter looks and taste done
Take the batter and just put on the foil, than before it cools down start spreading it as thin as dosa, on the foil, dont have to go round, from top to bottom.
Let it cool, than cut into long stirps.But not too hard, that the foil might rip.
After the stirps are made, start rolling them from one end to the other.
Put them in a nice decorative plate. or in a bowl.
Know you can garnish with the coconut and the coriander
Prepare the seasoning in a small pan, and just sprinkle it over the khandvi. Ready to Serve.
Subsitutions
If foil is not available, you can take small or big round place with a flat bottom, and you can easily do it on the back of it. But make sure you oil the bottom otherwise your khandvi wont come off.
Enjoyyy

Here is the recipe for the Coconut Chutney....

Coconut chutney recipe

If you are going to use the fresh coconut, then do the following:

Put the coconut in the freezer for 30 minutes. This will release the coconut from the shell easily.

Use a big knife and keeping the sharer side to the outside and holding the coconut with the other hand, strike the coconut in the center all around from the non-sharp side. The shell should split and the coconut shell can be removed. You will now be holding a nice brown coconut with water still inside. Shave the outside of the fresh coconut with a potato peeler.

Cut the coconut..and you can drink the water.

Ingredients:

1.5 cups of freshly grated Coconut

2 tsp of roasted split Channa daal (I use the split channa daal snack and wash the salt off)

2 tsp of Cashew nuts

inch Ginger chopped (about one loosely fit tbsp)

2 tsp of Cumin seeds (Jeera)

2 tbsp of Coriander leaves

4 small red whole Chillies

Pinch of Hing (Asafoetida)

Salt to taste

1 tbsp of Tamarind sauce

2 tbsp Oil

1 tsp of Mustard seeds

1 tsp of Cumin seeds

2 green Curry patta chopped

1 tbsp of Urad powder (you can also use the grinded Urad daal that you prepared for dosa)

Procedure

Add all the ingredients up to SALT in a grinder/blender and grind until a fine paste.

Add Tamarind sauce and mix well to the grinded coconut mixture.

In a small frying pan, add oil and heat on medium heat.

Add Mustard seeds and stir until the seeds crack.

Add Cumin seeds followed by Curry patta and saut until it splitter

Add the Hing and take the mixture off from the heat.

Add the frying pan mixture to the coconut mixture

Stir well.

You can add salt, pepper and/or tamarind sauce to your taste.

Un-used Chutney can be stored in an air tight glass container in the fridge for upto 3 weeks.

Okay, so now I am going to post on how to make the dosa on the tava (large frying pan)
Ingredients
3 cups of Dosa Mixture
Oil for shallow frying
1 onion halved
Procedure
Heat a big round Tava or frying pan over medium. Sprinkle some water drops on the Tava and if the water sizzles and disappears very fast, the pan is hot now for your cooking.
Inbetween each dosa, slide one half of the onion flat side on the tava all over the hot tava. This will make the batter not stick to the pan and also give the flavor to the dosa.
Sprinkle some oil and then some water and spread it over the tava with a paper towel to lubricate the surface. If any oil is left on the tava, it will deep fry that area. **this step should never be missed**
Add a laddle full of batter on to the tava and spread it quickly from the center to the outside with the back of the laddle. You can also use a flat kauli (glass or steel utencil) and move the batter evenly on the tava.
Drizzle some oil all around and let it cook under medium heat.
Lift the side of the round dosa and if the bottom has browned nicely with ringlets, you can turn it upside down. (I don't upside down the dosa as it is all cooked inside and out but some people do).
Remove the flat dosa on to a plate.
Fill the inside of the dosa with the Potato Bhaji in the center and fold it like you fold the omelette.
Enjoy it with the coconut chutney.
Some people like it with Sambar as well. Sambar recipe will follow in a few hours.
Thanks and don't forget to comment.
