Dose Manjanna, Must Try Salem Idli, Butter Idli, Onion Open Dosa, Mysore Masala Dosa, Jayanagar, Bengaluru, Vegetarian, Street Food
Manjanna ran a popular street cart for 48 years in the South Bengaluru suburb of Jayanagar selling only three or four dishes, dose, idli and vada, earning him the moniker, Dose Manjanna. His son, Ganesh, seeks to keep alive his late father’s legacy in a tiny shop, aptly named Dose Manjanna, serving a smattering of traditional and some accidentally inspired creations, like the buttery, spicy Salem Idli. Concocted on a cold, rainy night, when his store had run out of hot idlis, in a bid to acquiesce to a customer’s demand for hot food just prior to the latter’s boarding a bus for Salem.

In this #gourmetontheroad episode, Food Lovers’ editor, Kripal Amanna tastes the Salem Idli, a scrumptious ghee onion dose and a couple of other tiffin treats that has Jayanagar’s denizens crowding this eatery at all times. Hope you enjoy this episode.

SALEM IDLI
This Idli roasted in butter, sings the flavour of the butter with the spicy, grainy crunch of the podi. Eat it piping hot, just off the tawa. When it cools down, pair it with the spicy hurigadale (fried gram) chutney.
Rs. 20 (usd 0.3)
8.5/10

Butter Idli
Thatte idli roasted on a hot tawa over melted butter, with lashings of butter and served with a dollop of butter, this is sheer decadence. The idli loses some its fervour as it begins to cool, and that’s when you taste its slight tartness.
Rs. 20 (usd 0.3)

Open Onion Dose
Served folded, this crisp, kadak dose was the highlight for me. Dripping with ghee and butter, smeared with chutney podi, a generous sprinkling of moist, crunchy onions, this dose is flavourful enough to be eaten on its own. The chutneys served alongside play a distant second fiddle to this open onion dose.
Rs. 40 (usd 0.6)
9/10

Mysore Masale Dose
The masale is smeared into a paste with chutney podi, butter and onions as the dose is roasted on the tava. I expected it to be robust in its flavours, however the potatoes seem to tone down the aggression of the chutney podi, making this a gently-spiced bite. Mix together the gram chutney, chutney podi and butter that’s served alongside, and combine with the dose to savour a spicy mouthful.
Rs. 40 (usd 0.6)
8/10

Shavige Baath
The shavige baath here is light, fluffy and springy, tossed in a chitranna or lemon rice masala. Studded liberally with peanuts, fried lentils, flecks of green chilli and roasted curry leaves, it makes a gentle yet persuasive impression on the palate. If you like it spicy, enjoy it with the smokey tomato-red chilli-roasted gram chutney.
Rs. 30 (usd 0.4)
