I have a penchant for Dosas like most other people and I never stop at experimenting with different ingredients to create newer versions of this versatile dish. My newest discovery is the Ragi Dosa which I had heard of often but never tasted.I was doing a search for ‘Ragi recipes’ to finish the large quantity of Ragi at home. I came across this recipe on one of the websites but I’ve modified it to my taste. It turned out really well and I’m sure I’ll be making this often.
