Carrot Dosai/Carrot Dosa


Today is the final post for the colored dosa,themed in Food Carnival in Mega Blogging Marathon.
As my kids hesitate to eat veggies I sneak in some of their favorite food.Since dosa is their favorite I try to sneak the veggies as much as possible.
Coming to the recipe,this is a simple and healthy dosa can be made instantly.Need to soak the rice for few hours and grind to a fine paste.The same recipe can be followed for beetroot dosa too.Off to the recipe.....
