Must-Try Dishes at Udipi Jaya Restaurant

Molgaipudi Dosa

One of the most-loved South Indian dishes, the Molgaipudi Dosa is loved for its tangy, spicy flavours spread over a fluffy dosa. The dosa is famous for its earthy and nutty flavours lent by roasted lentils and bold spicy punch that it packs.

When combined with the muted flavours of our coconut chutney and flavourful sambhar, it offers a taste like nothing else!

Rasam Idli

Our rasam idli combination makes for the most comforting and wholesome breakfast meal or even a light dinner. Equally flavourful as our sambhar, the distinctly flavoured rasam is a great accompaniment to the more subtle taste of idlis.

We add ghee-tempered blends of spices to our rasam to give it a unique flavour and robust taste.

Malabar Parotta with Korma

Crispy, flaky, layers of parotta served with a heavenly coconut-based vegetable curry is a combination that will leave you asking for more. The joy of eating this dish lies in its unique texture and flavours- the pan-fried parotta paired with the rich and buttery gravy.

The curry, drastically different from North Indian curries, is loved for its natural sweetness and the flavour of warming spices and lightly sauteed mix of vegetables including carrots, peas, cauliflower, and beans.

Uttapam

Delicious and savoury rice and lentil pancakes topped with onions and other vegetables like carrots, and capsicum make for a wholesome and complete meal option. We offer a wide range of Uttapams including masala Uttapam, Onion Uttapam, and the classic vegetable Uttapam to suit everyone’s palate.

They taste best with our onion tomato chutney and a piping bowl of sambhar.

Bangalore Mysuru Masala Dosa

This spicier version of dosa is a popular choice for many. Inspired by the authentic and bold flavours of its originating state Mysore, it is the perfect pick for those craving a unique twist to their regular South Indian meal.

Our in-house rich and spicy chutney spread generously over a lightly-tempered filling of potatoes enveloped in a crisp dosa is what makes the dish truly special. We serve it with a side of coconut chutney and sambhar. For a richer taste, we recommend topping your Mysuru Masala Dosa with a dollop of white butter or ghee just before eating.

Masala Dosa

We serve the most unique and authentic Bengaluru Masala Dosa in Ahmedabad. Unlike the traditional masala dosa, our Bengaluru Masala Dosa is a unique combination of rice and lentils. Thicker and of a darker red hue, it is served with a savoury potato filling, a spicy tomato and onion chutney, and a comforting bowl of sambhar.

Thali

Our South Indian thali is a delectable harmony of flavours and textures. Every dish in our thali is carefully selected to let you taste the craftsmanship of our chefs. Whether it is the spicy yet comforting sambhar, fresh & fragrant rice, hearty lentil, crispy vadas, light-as-air idlis, or flavourful vegetable curries, every component adds a punch of unique taste.

What makes our thali stand out is our array of carefully selected authentic spices including curry leaves, mustard seeds, cumin, and turmeric ground and roasted with tamarind to elevate your food experience.
