PROCEDURE:
- Heat the dosa pan, once it becomes smoking hot slightly grease the pan and add a ladle full batter and make the dosa like uttappam. Just spread the dosa at the centre to spread the batter evenly if needed. Donot make concentric circles.
- Drizzle half a teaspoon of oil at the top and sides. Now the dosa starts to form holes on top.
- Add the sliced veggies or topping of your choice. If you like the dosa to be spicy add some cut green chillies.
- Once the base of the dosa becomes golden flip the dosa carefully and cook the otherside of the dosa for a minute or two.
- Serve hot with any type of Sambar or Chutney of your choice.
Yummm... looks so appetising...
