[@tsram]

As someone who makes dosas almost every day, a flat bottom cup is ok in a large hotel pan (or stone) but for home cooking, I always use a small round ladle. And the trick is to go in spirals in one continuous motion once the batter is in. You can't go back and flatten parts again.

[@sana_speranza]

Me too ... I would recommend a ladle as well. And at our home we would season after fermentation 🙈😅

[@tsram]

@@sana_speranza Yes. We also put salt afterwards. If the weather is hot, it doesn't matter, but during cold times salt will stop fermentation

Ben nailing that in under an hour is really impressive. I remember making dosas, when I was young, with my mother and utterly failing at every attempt. It's so great to see traditional South Indian food made properly with the love and respect it deserves.

[@24magiccarrot]

I love all Indian food, I don't know how authentic it is but my local Indian takeaway does a south Indian garlic chili chicken and it is amazing. I don't think Indian food gets the recognition for regional variations in the same way Chinese food does it all seems to get lumped together as one thing.

[@sskarn]

@@24magiccarrot Sounds delicious. And what you stated is very accurate. The mainstream Indian dishes that the West is exposed to that are Butter Chicken and Naan are just a drop in the ocean. 29 states and 8 union territories that specialise in their own local cuisine.. there'd easily be around a 1000 unique dishes and that is without counting the ones that were brought about as a result and influence of Chinese and Mughlai cuisine. The North East of India had a lot of Chinese immigrants (during the British rule) who have blended Indian and Chinese cuisine and Mughlai cuisine that was brought in after the invasion of Muslim emperors, which elevated North Indian cuisine by bringing in new methods of cooking.

[@24magiccarrot]

@@sskarn Unless it's not authentic butter chicken in the UK isn't that popular cuisine among curry lovers, it's seen as sort of a gateway dish to other curries. Obviously, a lot of Indian cuisine in the UK has been altered to suit UK tastes, for example, Balti was invented in the UK, and things like Tika masala in the UK are very different from the masalas you get in India, typically UK palates want creamier and sweeter dishes. I have no idea how authentic it is but I usually get a Kali Mirchi when I order from my local Indian, the main spice in it is tamarind which I know is traditionally African but is fairly common in India.

I think Ben did a great job, and Karan is such a lovely guest! That coconut chutney looked AMAZING.

[@rajathpai9573]

As a south Indian following the channel, I loved the fact that you guys challenged Ben to learn to make the Dosas . Things I can add to the process, The restaurant griddle was quite hot and getting the tawa to a decent temperature is necessary to get the even browning, similar to that of a crepe, and you want to test the heat to a point whereby putting the oil and spreading it, then adding a bit of water, clears up by itself (Ben wiped it and didnt realise the pan wasn't as hot as needed). This is the stage you put the dollop of the better in the center of the pan and in a spiralling motion spread outwards to make the Dosa. The pan Dosa use the space and are generally more circular whereas those in restaurants tend to be bigger and elliptical, So I feel it was unfair for Ben to replicate it on the tawa, but great going on making the Dosa , but people would know that he made a fluffier type of dosa called Set Dosa. Cast Iron pans always require a decent amount of seasoning before Dosas stop sticking to the bottom. Also, Its about disperising the oil using a bit of water effectively at a temperature when the water drops dance on the pan surface.

[@almogpas4589]

Yes! This is fantastic. I love seeing stressy Ebbers! Karan is funny and lovely as always and it's always a treat when he's a guest. Please do more of these! I'd love Ebbers to take on 1 hour masterclasses from the various chefs you've met in London. Imagine who else has cast iron pans that need re-seasoning!

[@MaZEEZaM]

I agree but I do really want to see the correct method after Ben has made his mistakes as we likely would. We would learn best that way.

[@lynnayamoon]

I always throw a couple of handfulls of red lentil into my tomato sauce for pasta, it has such a meaty flavour when used as a spice, and gives it a bit of texture and umami without adding any meat.

[@TheTaiylorWallace]

Granted, Ben has years of culinary experience so he has a leg up on learning new methods and cuisine. But I think anyone who learns a new skill and can make something passable in an hour is to be applauded, and the teachers especially applauded for making it so clear and informative.

[@kohlinoor]

South Indian food is quite vegetarian-friendly. North Indian not so much.

[@melissalambert7615]

I'm often amazed how vegans in the US use so many fake meat products. There are thousands of lovely dishes from S. India that don't include meat (or dairy). I eat meat but also love a lentil curry or veggie dish.

[@MaZEEZaM]

And in Australia. I'm a difficult person to please when it comes to purely vegetarian foods but I have very fond memories of my dad making a potato and cauliflower curry but I don't really like cauliflower so these days I think I would replace it with potatoes, broccoli and peas, either frozen peas or fresh snow peas would be really nice. My dad makes fantastic curries, I can cook from the exact same chicken Murgh Makhani (butter chicken) curry and his will always be much nicer. He cooks curries much better than most takeaways we get and he's not eeven Indian, he English/Australian.

[@MP_heehee]

@@melissalambert7615 the one thing about meat substitutes is that often they have a high protein content. sometimes when cooking with whole foods, you might have to eat A LOT of different plant protein sources combined to get the same amount of protein. whole foods are definitely better for you than meat subs, but the high protein is often hard to beat imo. I don't want to eat tofu at every meal just to get enough protein 😬

First of all, thank you so much, Sorted Food for learning to make one of my favourite things to eat!!! 🥰 Genuinely, this was a great effort. Most of us spend years learning the dosa-making technique, and we grow up having it for breakfast/dinner. Ben did a great job of making dosas from just learning the technique in one hour. :) Also, it's notoriously hard to cook dosas without a gas flame because the heat can't be controlled as easily. The fact that Ben didn't burn any or have them underdone (easy mistakes to make) is a true moment where I think his chef skills shone through.

Dosas are brilliant, but so are the rasams, chitrannas (coloured rices eg. Tamarind rice/puliogare) and it's just a world of so many different flavours that vary even within districts of South India. Thanks to Karan for teaching the techniques and also demonstrating how different restaurant dosas are to home made ones.

[@angrypotato_fz]

It was a wonderful idea! It's lovely to see Ben learning some stuff from different traditions, already being well educated and using his skills and knowledge. Karan's advice were very simple and easy to understand, he's such a nice guest! I only wish Ben made the batter himself, I feel it's a critical part. I know it's complicated to shoot, but maybe it would be possible to record just Ben preparing the batter (and review the footage later with Karan, or video conf him just for the preparation) and use it the next day in the studio. Of course, the same for other time-needing ingredients, should you continue this format. The 'professional' batter could be at hand if the one (or a few different batches) made by Ben failed. It would be extremely helpful to see how to fix failed batter, or when it can be only discarded!

[@carolprince16]

As a Tamilian, I'm so chuffed to see Ben attempt to make a dosa. Here at home, we generally use a long handled, rounded spoon to spread the batter around.

Can I ask the reason for it being a flat surface, rather than something like a crepe spreader? I would think that would be a good tool for getting it the batter spread thinly and evenly. (And if I could ask another question, what is the point of the oil and then possibly scraping it into the top of the batter? Especially at the restraunt, it looked like they were almost making stripes on the underside of the dosa!)
