Masala Dosa

Idli and Dosa are the two main most popular, famous and loved south Indian dishes by all. Idli and Dosa both have always been my weakness. Always ready to have one :). Both are healthy and delicious to eat. Dosa comes in great variety like Paper Dosa, Masala Dosa, Cheese Dosa, Paneer Dosa, Rawa Dosa etc. Today here i'm listing down masala dosa's recipe.

Prepare Dosa
