About Masala dosa

Masala Dosa is a popular South Indian dish made from a fermented batter of rice and urad dal (black gram lentils), cooked into a thin, crispy crepe. It is traditionally filled with a spiced potato mixture seasoned with mustard seeds, curry leaves, turmeric, and green chilies, offering a flavorful and aromatic experience. Masala Dosa is naturally gluten-free and packs a good balance of carbohydrates, protein, and fiber due to its lentil and rice base. The fermentation process enhances its digestibility and boosts probiotic content. However, the dish can be calorie-dense, especially when paired with coconut chutney or sambhar, or if prepared with an excess of oil or ghee. Opting for moderation in oils and using more nutrient-rich fillings can make it a healthier choice while preserving its authentic taste and nutritional benefits.
