Crafting the Record-Breaking Dosa
The cooking process, although similar to that of a regular dosa, had its unique intricacies. A massive 123-foot tawa, specially crafted for the occasion by Lorman Kitchen Equipments, was set to a precise temperature and monitored meticulously using infrared thermometers. The dosa batter, prepared using MTR’s mix, was spread evenly using a batter hopper to ensure uniformity.
As the synchronized process unfolded, the dosa was seamlessly rolled using a long line of connected slicers, resulting in a crispy dosa without any breaks. The achievement was met with resounding cheers of victory, marking a momentous occasion for all involved.
