Saturday night I made rava dosas with potato chickpea masala. Gah. Another bland Indian dish from my kitchen. I've tried a lot of Indian recipes, but they rarely turn out for me. I must not be using the right spices. Well, it was spicy, but bland at the same time. Crazy.
Have you tried toasting your spices in a frying pan to help bring out the flavor more? This was recommended to me by one of my Indian friends -- however, the few times I've tried to make Indian food it comes out bleh too.
I toasted the cumin seeds, but only because the recipe called for it. I guess I could've toasted the other spices, but the mixture simmered for a long time which should've activated them.

At least your dosa looks good. Man I love dosas.
