If there’s one Indian dish that has gained popularity worldwide, butter chicken probably tops the list. Amongst the many variations of this global sensation, Chef Saransh Goila’s variation – the famously finger-licking good Goila Butter Chicken – is easily one of the most famous versions of it. Dubbed as ‘India Ka Super Chef’ (India’s super chef) following his win on Food Food Maha Challenge – a competitive cooking game show, this Delhi-born chef has taken his expertise to the sets of Masterchef Australia by doubling as a guest judge for one of the episodes. Like his butter chicken, Chef Goila, too, has had his fair share of travel – unarguably so! Chef Goila holds a record for the ‘Longest road journey by a chef’, travelling across India to discover regional cuisines, for 100 days.
Adding to his list of accomplishments and multitudinous hosting experiences is the latest episode of #TNLTasteOfTheWorld where Chef Goila teaches us how to make a Ragi dosa with potatoes — a classic Indian breakfast dish.

Recipe:
Ragi Dosa

Potatoes
- In a separate pan, add some ghee, chana dal, and urad dal.
