Description

Set Dosa as the name suggests is a set of 3 thick, spongy, and fluffy small Dosas usually served with any kind of chutney. In this recipe, I added some grated carrot, green chilies, ginger, and coriander leaves on top of the Dosa. When you prepare Dosa, just remember that as you pour the batter on tawa, don’t spread it, just leave it and cover the lid.  It looks like a nice and thick pancake.
