Mysore sada dosa recipe | Mumbai style roadside Mysore Sada Dosa | with 25 amazing images.

Hmmm, when you want to have a quick and light meal, but are in too perky a mood for sada dosa, then go for the Mysore sada dosa which is not too heavy on the tummy but still has a nice, semi-spicy flavour, thanks to the mysore chutney!

Mysore masala dosa without the Mysore masala (which consists of a potato based vegetable stuffing) is Mysore sada dosa.

I would like to suggest 7 tips to make the perfect Mysore sada dosa. 1. In case if you have purchased the dosa batter from the market and you find it thick, then add water as required to get a pouring consistency batter. 2. Add some sooji (rava) to get crispy brown dosas. 3. Ensure that the Mysore chutney is a little thick which will help in easy spreading on the dosa. We have used around 1 cup of water for blending. 4. To make the Mumbai street style Mysore sada dosa, heat a non-stick tava. Grease it with ½ tsp of butter. Butter for greasing is used to season the tava and form a layer that helps in easy removal of the dosa after cooking. This initial greasing is done only once before making the dosas. 5. Sprinkle little water on the tava, it should sizzle immediately. If the water is not sprinkled, the excess fat will make the spreading of Mysore sada dosa very difficult. 6. Wipe the tava using a clean muslin cloth or folded tissue. This is to clean and make the tava ready for spreading the dosa batter. If there is any fat on the tava, the dosa will not spread evenly. 7. Spread the dosa batter in a circular motion using a ladle.

You can even make Mysore Barley Dosa which is a nutritious version of this sada dosa. Mysore Masala Dosa with Green Chutney is another variant of mysore dosa with spicy green chutney.
