Adai dosa is a healthy protein rich South Indian breakfast recipe made using a mix of lentils, rice and spices. Each one uses dals and rice in 1:1 proportion. I prefer to take dal in excess than rice. Read the recipe and get to know the preparation of crispy and soft hotel style adai dosa. Adai goes well with Avial. Serve hot with a piece of jaggery and butter. The jaggery melts in hot adai.
