This must surely be the fastest recipe from a paper clipping that found the way to the blog. It was just last week that The Hindu featured some dosa varieties. As if there was a dearth of varieties with dosa, Amma decided to make this right away. She also saved the paper clipping for my records. I made it for dinner last night and it surely was so delicious.
What I liked most was the lovely green colour that refused to go even after being cooked. I thought the batter has the colour and it will change after it cooked, no it still was so lovely and I managed to click a few quick ones before attacking. Since our return from our Sankranthi Vacation, things have been sort of hectic. Though I had clicked loads of pictures, cooked some new ones, I am still trying hard to edit them. So I am not sure when those pictures will actually get shared.
This is a lovely twist to the original Andhra Pesarattu with coriander being added.
