I would be really interested in trying this and I’m a good cook but I’ve just always read that Indian food is extremely difficult to make. That and the list of ingredients I need when I look up recipes for Chole/ Chana masala or daal makes it seem really expensive. Where do you get your recipes?

Do you know if they sell premade dosa batter at any of the markets? That might be an easier (and cheaper) place to start?

I don’t know tbh. It’s an expensive type of food to get. That’s been pretty consistent in my experience living in several areas/major cities in the US.

It’s always kind of baffles me. Woodlands the other day ordering Samosa, 3 curries, Riati, and naan was almost $80. Didn’t even include tamarind sauce or chutney with the order. Also the smallest portions I’ve ever seen. The yellow daal also had no flavor. We didn’t even eat it.

Shoot I wonder what happened. Woodlands is actually the place I’ve ordered from 2/3 times since Udupi closed. Indian food is expensive and Woodlands is just not worth it to me personally. I kind of hoped there was some hidden gem I didn’t know about.

Thank you for your response! If I find a place I think is better than Woodlands I’ll let you know if you’d like.
