Till date I Knew only about masala dosa & plain dosa. It was only after shifting to hyderabad I was exposed to a wide gamut of dosas.I tasted onion dosa first at wipro,hyderabad canteen & next at my building neighbours house. There are different kinds of dosais.. plain dosai, masala dosai, adai dosai, paruppu dosai, onion dosa, thakkali (tomato) dosi, kal dosa, uthappam, mini uthappam and many more never ending varieties. Dosai is like a flexible daughter-in-law, always ready to get accustomed to all kinds of situations
Now, let’s make / onion dosa! The crispy taste of fresh onions roasted very lightly on top of the dosai is something to relish. The preparation of this dosai is very simple & adds a twist to the normal dosas .It could be a big hit with guests!
