Prep
Strain the soaked lentils, keeping the water aside.
Place the lentils in a grinder along with the reserved water or fresh water.
Grind the urad dal, chana dal, and fenugreek seeds until you have a light and fluffy batter.
Transfer the batter to a bowl or pan using a spatula.
Cooking
Gently stir the batter, noticing tiny air pockets and increased volume.
Heat a cast iron or non-stick pan to medium-hot.
Grease with oil for cast iron, but not for non-stick.
Keep the flame low while spreading the batter in a circular shape.
Cook the dosa on medium heat, sprinkle oil on top and edges, and cover with a lid.
Cook until the base turns golden and crisp.
Once the base is golden, add the potato filling, spread if desired, and fold the dosa before serving.
