Street foods joints that line the lanes of Mumbai offer a wide variety of eats. One among them is fusion dosa, where the humble dosa is filled with a noodle preparation. I think this is a result of some street vendor's attempt to tweak the dosa to attract the crowd. Different vendors offer different types of fusion dosa. It all depends on the stuffing that ranges from boiled noodles to fried noodles to stir fried vegetables all laced with schewan sauce.
Ingredients:
Dosa batter - 2cups
Hakka noodles -1cup
Capsicum -1/2
Carrot -1
Onion - 1
Spring onion greens - few
Tomato sauce -2tsps
Chilly sauce/ Schezwan sauce -2tsps
Garlic paste -1/4 tsp
Ginger paste -1/4tsp
Salt and oil - as required
Method:
Cook the hakka noodles as per the instructions in the pack. Cool and keep it aside. Chop all the vegetables length wise. In a wok or frying pan stir fry the carrot and capsicum in little oil. Remove and keep it aside. In the same pan fry the onions. When it changes colour, add the garlic and ginger paste. Stir for few second. Then add the spring onion greens, the sauces, salt and the cooked noodle. Sauté till everything is blended well. This is the filling.
spread the filling evenly
Heat a griddle and pour one ladle of dosa batter over it. Spread it round to make a thin crepe. Drizzle some oil on top and cook. When it starts lifting from the edges spread a spoonful of the filling over it. Roll it firmly. Cut it into pieces and serve.
Note: For the dosa batter refer "onion carrot pancake" recipe in this blog.
