If you’ve ever tried South Indian cuisine, you know dosas, or rice-based crepes, are common at all meal times, from breakfast to dinner. But masala dosa is particularly popular as a breakfast item because it’s more filling than a regular dosa. A masala dosa is nothing but a savory rice crepe with spiced potato filling. The filling may seem similar to regular dry aloo sabzi, but what sets it apart is that the filling is mashed. This makes it more palatable as a stuffing for dosa.
