Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Perfect Dosa
- For extra crispy dosas, let the batter ferment for a few hours or overnight in a warm place.
- Adjust the amount of water in the batter to achieve the desired consistency. It should be slightly thicker than pancake batter.
- Don't overcrowd the pan; cook dosas one at a time for even cooking and crispiness.
- Experiment with different fillings! Try adding potatoes, vegetables, or cheese to your dosas for a unique twist.
