    Very crispy and yummy! As for the mutton dish, you can replace with chicken and follow the same method but shorter cooking time since chicken is tender than mutton....

    Thanks Sharada for stopping by at my blog....U too got a wonderful space here.....I'm glad that U visited me b'coz now I found a solution to my problem of soft dosa by visiting U.....I learned these dosas from one of my South Indian friend but in my house other then me no one liked it b'coz they were not crunchy, but adding rice flour is just wht it needed to give it that crunch....so thanks, next time will try with rice flour....

    another question what exactly u do when U say smear oil using cut onion.....

    thanks for sharing it...
