Masala Dosa
South India


🥞 Masala Dosa
🌮 Description: A thin, crispy crepe made from fermented rice and lentil batter, stuffed with a spiced mashed potato filling. Masala dosa is a signature South Indian dish that balances texture, spice, and tangy accompaniments perfectly.
Typically served with coconut chutney, tomato chutney, and sambar, this dish is often eaten as breakfast or brunch but loved any time of the day. The dosa's crispiness, paired with the creamy potato masala, creates a delightful contrast.
📍 Origin: Karnataka, South India
🍽️ Served With: Coconut chutney, sambar, tomato-onion chutney
📸 Cultural Note: Many hotels in South India advertise “99 Varieties of Dosa” including cheese, mushroom, and chocolate dosa to attract younger crowds.
Cypriot Parallel: Masala dosa is somewhat like Cypriot crepes or thin pancakes with savoury filling, but the fermentation gives it a unique tang and the sambar-chutney trio offers a layered eating experience.
