– 1/4 cup urad dal (split black gram), soaked for 4-6 hours
– 1/2 teaspoon fenugreek seeds, soaked for 4-6 hours
– Water, as needed
– Salt, to taste

### For the Butter Chicken:
– 500g boneless chicken, diced
– 2 tablespoons butter
– 1 tablespoon oil
– 1 large onion, finely chopped
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
– 1 can (400g) crushed tomatoes
– 1/4 cup heavy cream
– 1 tablespoon garam masala
– 1 tablespoon chili powder (adjust to taste)
– 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
– Salt, to taste
– Fresh cilantro, for garnish

## Instructions/Steps

### Step 1: Prepare the Dosa Batter
1. In a blender, combine the soaked rice, urad dal, fenugreek seeds, and a little water. Blend until smooth and pour in a large bowl.
2. Add salt to taste, cover, and let it ferment for at least 8 hours or overnight.

### Step 2: Cook the Butter Chicken
3. In a large skillet, heat butter and oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until golden brown.
4. Stir in the minced garlic and ginger. Cook for another minute until fragrant.
5. Add the diced chicken to the skillet and sear until it is browned on all sides.
6. Mix in the crushed tomatoes, garam masala, chili powder, turmeric powder, and salt. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
7. Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream. Cook for an additional 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning if necessary and garnish with fresh cilantro.

### Step 3: Make the Dosa
8. Heat a non-stick skillet or tava over medium-high heat. Pour a ladleful of dosa batter onto the skillet and spread it in a circular motion to form a thin layer.
9. Drizzle a little oil around the edges and cook until the dosa is golden brown and crisp, about 2-3 minutes.
10. Place a generous serving of the butter chicken in the center of the dosa, fold it over, and serve hot!
