Talking to News18, Kanhaiya Sharma said, “I have been selling dosas for the last four years. I prepare dosas using good quality oil to ensure the health and well-being of my customers. First, I purchase urad dal, gram dal, rice, and fenugreek from the market. Then, I make the dosa batter by grinding these ingredients in a mixer at home.”
“Next, I finely chop onions, tomatoes, and coriander to mix into the dosa. I also prepare sambhar with a variety of vegetables to accompany the dosa. I ensure that only high-quality spices are used, which gives the dosa a unique and delightful flavour. Recently, I’ve started adding butter and cheese to the dosas and this twist has been a big hit with customers,” Sharma added.
Jai Maa Kaila Devi Dosa House offers a range of dosa options to cater to different tastes. The plain dosa, served simply and priced at Rs 40, is always a crowd favourite. For those seeking something richer, there is the paneer dosa, made by combining paneer with potatoes and onions, available for Rs 50.
However, the most popular item on the menu is the butter, cheese paneer dosa, priced at just Rs 60. This variant, with its unique combination of flavours, is particularly popular among food lovers. The stall sees a significant influx of customers during the evening time which results in sales reaching up to Rs 2,000 daily.
