Pura Dia Chakuli Peetha -- Super soft dosas with sweet coconut stuffing

It's so simple and makes a great breakfast...even on a week day.

All you need is

  • Dosa Batter - Store bought or home-made.. Either works great !
  • Nadiya Pura - Sweet Coconut Stuffing - See below for the recipe. Its real simple
  • Oil (or oil spray) for making dosas
Process
  • Heat a non-stick Dosa pan and grease it with a little oil (and a tissue paper)
  • When the pan is medium hot, spread the Dosa batter like you'd for a dosa or chakuli peetha.
  • Pour a little oil on the sides.
  • Let the chakuli peetha cook a bit. When the peetha is almost cooked, spread the coconut stuffing on one side of the dosa and fold over the other half.
  • Let the dosa cook with the coconut stuffing inside of it. Flip to cook the other side also.
  • Serve hot with nothing but a wide smile !!



Sweet coconut stuffing - a.k.a "Nadiya Pura" {Pasted from an older post}




Ingredients:
  • Grated Coconut - 2 Cups
  • Jaggery - 1.5 Cups (This will be totally based on your good judgement)
  • Fresh Home-made Paneer - About 1 cup
  • Cardamom Powder {Powder of around 3-4 cardamoms}
  • Wee bit ghee.
Procedure:
  • Heat 1/2 cup water in a flat bottom open pan and add the jaggery pieces to it. Cover and let the jaggery melt into the water. If your jaggery is already crushed and is in powder form, skip this step.
  • Add ghee to the jaggery+water mix and cook on open flame.
  • When water has reduced to around 1/4th of the original amount, add the coconut and cardamom powder. Mix well and let the coconut cook and become soft.
  • Next goes the paneer. There is no need to cook the paneer a lot. Just 2 mins is just fine.
  • Mix everything well together and keep aside to cool down. 
  • This stuffing can be stored in the fridge for about a week or so.
