Neer Dosa is a Mangalore breakfast dish. So easy to prepare breakfast within minutes. For this dosa no fermentation required. If you soak the rice overnight you could be able to prepare this dosa easily with in half an hour.

This breakfast taste great with a spicy tasty side dish. You could eat this with any non vegetarian preparations. It tastes great with spicy tomato thokku (Onion tomato chutney) as an easy to make vegetarian option for morning breakfast. I have got this recipe from Vijay tv's Venkatesh Bhut chef's program. Tasty breakfast could be prepared without any effort. Even bachelors too make this dish easily in the morning.
