Dosa batter tends to find its way around my kitchen 24 hours day. Im lost without them. Its like a soul food for us and many can wonder how I can make and eat dosa everyday for a long time and still not be bored with it. It's probably I eat a lots of dosa growing up as my dad owns a Indian restaurant back in my hometown.

Most of my friends would normally comment," You can simply order online or swing by your nearest Indian store to grab a few bottles rite so what's the fuss about .''
