Directions
This is not an easy recipe for a beginner, unless you know Dosa how to's. If you knew dosa how-to's all you need are the ingredients which are listed ;-)

Serves 5 at 2 large dosas each filled with almost 1/2 a cup of bhaji and 2 tbsp. chutney on the side. You may fall short on chutney but, not everyone likes a lot of chutney on the side as I do!!! LOL

FOR DIABETIC batter, use 1/2 cup rice only.
