Dosas are thin, crispy pancakes originating from South India, made primarily from fermented rice and lentil batter. They are a staple in South Indian cuisine and are often served with various accompaniments like sambar (a lentil-based vegetable stew) and chutney (a condiment made from fruits, vegetables, or herbs). There are many types of dosas, including the popular masala dosa, which is filled with a spiced potato mixture. Dosas can be enjoyed at any meal and are known for their versatility, as they can be served plain or with different fillings and toppings, making them a favorite among many.
