Set dosa and Mixed Vegetable

Set Dosa

These are soft, spongy and light dosa prepared specially for breakfast. In restaurants specielly in Bangalore where I stay, these dosas are served in a set of 3 with a very delicious mixed vegetable. Usually set dosas are cooked only on one side but I cook them on both the sides. Sometimes I even make these dosas for tiffin. I will share both set dosa and mixed vegetable curry recipe. Lets start
