Ingredients

  • 2 cups dosa batter
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 medium, finely chopped tomato
  • 1 small, finely chopped onion
  • 2 tbsp, chopped cilantro
  • ½ tsp chili powder

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour 1/2 cup of the dosa batter and spread it into a thin circle, about 8 inches across.

  2. 2

    Crack 1 egg directly onto the dosa and spread it evenly with a spoon. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and 1/4 tsp chili powder.

  3. 3

    Scatter half of the chopped tomato, onion, and cilantro over the egg. Cook until the edges turn golden and crisp, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Fold the dosa in half and press gently. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the egg is set and the dosa is crispy.

  5. 5

    Repeat with the remaining batter and toppings. Serve hot with chutney or ketchup.
