The pleasant climate has set in the UAE. The other day I was making hot dosas. I happened to chance upon the lush green onion springs that grew in my balcony. I cut a few sprigs and sprinkled them on my dosa. The result a hot steaming onion springs’ dosa was ready within few seconds.

Dosa batter (if you are not aware of it, you can obtain a ready-made version of the batter from the Indian store) J
