Originated in South India over two millenniums ago, a dosa/dosai is a thin pancake made from a fermented batter of rice and black gram. It has been a popular go-to breakfast food especially in South India but as many chefs migrated to other Indian cities recently, the popularity of this south Indian breakfast increased and spread out. Now dosas are eaten anytime and anywhere across the country and even beyond. Among the countless number of variations that are being created, the masala dosa, filled with a lightly cooked potato, is the most popular one around the subcontinent. Furthermore, dosas are not only tasty but also healthy because they are vegetarian and fermented food. In addition, they are prepared with locally available ingredients, which is good for the environment. A dosa is indeed a wholesome food packed with nutrition and wellbeing.
