Method

1. To begin the preparation of the sweet potato dosa recipe, make sure to thoroughly wash the sweet potatoes to ensure cleanliness and hygiene.

2. Peel the skin of the washed sweet potatoes. This will help create a smooth texture and enhance the overall taste of the dosa.

4. To make the flavorful sweet potato dosa batter, simply grind the chopped sweet potato pieces with water and salt. This will result in a smooth and well-seasoned batter, perfect for preparing delicious sweet potato dosas. Adjust the water quantity as needed to achieve the desired consistency.

5. Once the sweet potatoes have been blended to a smooth consistency, add them to the dosa batter and mix thoroughly. Ensure that the sweet potato is well incorporated into the batter, creating a harmonious blend of flavors. This step will infuse the dosa batter with the delightful essence of sweet potato, enhancing its taste and nutritional value.

6. Let the batter sit for a few minutes to allow for fermentation. This resting period enhances the flavors and helps achieve soft and fluffy sweet potato dosas when cooked.
