Masala dosa is a much loved delicacy of most of the people residing in India. This actually is a South Indian speciality, usually has a filling which has lots of vegetables or potatoes alone. Here I have tried out a non-veg masala dosa with add ons like eggs and chicken. With a lot of vegetables along with potatoes, the masala dosa is a real lip smacker and a good choice for making your family members happy on a Saturday evening.

Preparing dosa

- Pour dosa batter and allow to cook after adding half a tsp of ghee to the dosa for making it crisp.
- In a bowl, beat an egg with a pinch of salt
- Pour the egg on top of the dosa. Allow the dosa to cook
