Over time, dosa has had a number of variations but the most popular remains the masala dosa.

Masala Dosa is light, crispy and crepe like stuffed with spiced potatoes. The potatoes are lightly cooked with onions, spices, curry leaves and mustard seeds, wrapped in a crisp rice and lentil crepe. It is best enjoyed with a bowl of sambhar and coconut chutney on the side.

Though its origin lies in Udupi, Karnataka, a southern state of India, it is loved and savored all over the country and across the world as well. It now has a prominent place in every Indian restaurant’s menu all over the globe.

In recent years, there have been new variations that have taken the masala dosa to greater heights by giving them varied taste and flavors like Vegetable masala dosa, Chinese masala dosa, Paneer chilli dosa, Palak masala dosa, cheese masala dosa and many others.

But… the golden look and humble potato filling intertwined with the aroma of melting ghee and the indescribable richness of the sambar, and the subtle and warm flavors of the chutneys, all of it makes one swoon every single time.

Dosa contains all the essential nutrients and calories needed for proper functioning of the body making your meal not just tasty, but healthy as well. You can have dosa for breakfast, brunch, lunch or even dinner since it is easily digestible, low on calories and extremely appetizing!
