Spicy Tomato Dosa
We make dosa at home regularly, not a great fan of idly but dosa is our family all time fav breakfast. I remember book marking this recipe from a Aval Vikeden variety dosa book long time ago in my diary and thought of giving it a try and instantly loved it. It doesn't really need a chutney ,the dosa itself has a good spice and nice taste when we eat it plain. When you give it to kids less the red chillies, they will also like it since the nice dark orange red color is very appealing. I enjoyed it with my peanut chutney and loved it a lot. Will load the chutney soon. I have one variety of peanut chutney in site already this goes well too. Very flavorful. For nov week 3 I am loading this recipe.
