masala dosa

Spiced potato pancake

Masala dosa is a South Indian dish consisting of a large, thin, crispy crepe made from fermented rice and lentil batter, filled with spiced potato filling.

The crepe is typically served folded or rolled around the masala (the seasoned potato mixture) and accompanied by coconut chutney and sambar.

It's a staple of South Indian cuisine and a popular breakfast or snack worldwide: We ordered masala dosas at the Indian restaurant.
