Masala Dosa is a popular south indian breakfast dish. It is thin crepes made with rice and urad dal spread with a spicy chutney filled with a spicy potato masala . This dish is usually enjoyed with some coconut chutney and sambar.
Mysore Masala Dosa Recipe
Masala dosa is one of famous south indian breakfast cuisine which is originated from Thuluva Udupi or Mangalorean cuisine of Karnataka.
The Mysore Masala Dosa slightly differs from other varieties. It is thin and roasted crispy brown outside and filled inside with signature spicy Potato mixture. Finally it is topped with spicy red garlic chutney outside.
This Dosa is slightly varied from the Masala Dosa that I posted yesterday.It has a spicy red chutney applied all over the dosa. This taste good. but it will be a little spicier.For all spice lovers this is the one.
Dosa and idlis are a staple of south indian meal.They are a lifesaver when you have no time to make anything.They are served with chutney or sambar.
But this dosa is a special one, they have a spicy masala inside them, so they don’t need any side dish with them.Taste great hot.Similar Recipes,
