This bubble waffle dosa is a modern take on the traditional South Indian dosa. Fermented rice and urad dal batter is mixed with edible charcoal to create a striking black dosa, then filled with a spicy mixture of mature cheddar cheese, green chilli, onion and coriander.

The recipe can be prepared in a bubble waffle maker for a unique presentation or cooked traditionally on a dosa tawa. The result is a crisp, savoury chilli cheese charcoal dosa with a soft, cheesy centre.
