Servings: 4

Ingredients

Dosa batter
2 cups
Onion
1 medium, finely chopped
Tomato
1 medium, finely chopped
Green chili
1, finely chopped (adjust to taste)
Ginger
1-inch piece, grated
Curry leaves
10-12 leaves, chopped
Coriander leaves
2 tablespoons, chopped
Salt
to taste
Oil
for greasing and drizzling
Coconut chutney

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the dosa batter, chopped onion, tomato, green chili, grated ginger, curry leaves, coriander leaves, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
  2. Heat a non-stick dosa tawa or skillet over medium heat. Grease it lightly with oil to ensure the dosa does not stick.
  3. Pour a ladleful of the dosa batter onto the tawa and spread it in a circular motion to form a thin dosa, ensuring even thickness.
  4. Drizzle some oil around the edges of the dosa and cook until the bottom turns golden brown and crispy, approximately 2-3 minutes.
  5. Flip the dosa carefully and cook the other side for an additional minute or until it is cooked through and slightly golden.
  6. Remove the dosa from the tawa and serve hot with coconut chutney or sambar for dipping.
