  2. Hi Ramya

    It is a quick recipe when you do not have ordinary dosa batter. You can also add a teaspoon of Jeera and little coconut pieces or carrot pieces to the batter.

  3. I can’t wait to try this! I think you should submit this for ‘dosa mela’ on this site http://cooking4allseasons.blogspot.com/
