Chutneys and dosa have always gone hand in hand, but it’s not often that you come across a dish with two chutney varieties. Andhra Style Erra Karam Dosa Recipe is one of those dishes which has been inspired by the Karnataka style masala dosas; however, what sets this apart from them is its flavorful red chili chutney smeared on top while making. With garlic and onion being used generously to make the sauce more pungent than usual for an extra taste sensation!
