Masala dosa is a popular South Indian breakfast dish where a dosa batter
is spread, sprinkled with lot of oil topped with red chutney and potato
bhaji/masala and cooked till crispy. This is often served along with chutney
and sambhar. The origin of this popular dish was by the Udupi hotels and later
its popularity increased worldwide. Now we can find variations in masala dosa
such as Butter masala dosa, Paneer masala dosa, Palak masala dosa and spring
dosa’s.
This is my all time most favorite breakfast dish and I prefer preparing
it at least once in a week though it is a bit lengthy process. I do not like
masala dosa along with sambhar so I have skipped here in this recipe. I have
given links of the things that is required to prepare masala dosa instead of
each ingredient.
