Coming to day 2 themed under colorful dosa is a pale green colored dosa made with curry leaves.Back in India my mom used to make a dosa with ballon vine(mudaikatahn keerai).Some times curry leaves can also be added along with it.Since I don't get ballon vine here,made it only with curry leaves.
The dosa came out so well with the flavor of curry leaves and cumin,pepper.This dosa tastes good when it is straight from the pan.It turns slightly hard when its cool down.So I personally prefer to have it when its is warm.Both coconut chutney and spicy chutney goes well with this dosa.Off to the recipe.................
