Dosa [Janet]

These are the dosas and idlis we get every Monday morning. The idlis are the small round white things. They are made from a rice flour batter and left overnight to slightly ferment. They are then steamed in molds. The larger dosas are thin pancakes similar to crepes that are made from a rice and urad dal mixture that is ground and also left to ferment overnight. These are filled with a spiced potato filling. Coconut chutney is offered to dip pieces of both idlis and dosas into. The 'plates' are banana leaves that the dosas come wrapped in to stay warm.

Lily adds, "These are the Heavenly Dosas."

This photo made me quite hungry, even though it is 11 PM here. Good to know you're eating well.
