Check out my simple innovative recipe of Dosa Gujiya. It is an amalgamation of South Indian Dosa with a traditional North Indian sweet.
Gujiya is a deep fried crisp pastry stuffed with khoya and dry fruits. Dosa as we all know, is a South Indian crepe and enjoyed with chutney and sambar.
So I tweaked two age old recipes a bit to come up with this fusion breakfast of Dosa Gujiya, where small sized dosa is filled with some leftover dry veg. curry and given a gujiya shape.
They look very appealing and appetizing too. I added little food colour to the dosa, but it is purely optional. This is a great party recipe to be relished with any chutney of your choice.
- 3-4 cups of dosa batter
- pinch of green food colour (opt)
- 1 cup dry vegetable curry
- oil to shallow fry
- coconut chutney to serve
Mix the food colour to the dosa batter well. Heat a non stick tawa and pour a ladleful of the batter. Spread it around and cook on a low flame for 1-2 minutes.
Drizzle some oil and cook on both sides. Do not make it too crisp. Let it be slightly soft so that it is easy to fold.
Cut into rounds with a cookie cutter. Take each round and place a tsp. of any leftover dry veg. curry in the centre.
Apply some water around the edges and close it securely into a crescent (Gujiya) shape. Press it lightly and run a fork around the edges for some design if you wish.
Now your fusion Dosa Gujiya is ready to be relished. Make similar Gujiyas with the remaining dosa batter and the stuffing and serve with coconut chutney for a nice fusion breakfast / meal.
