Adai Dosa

Add caption
Adai is such a versatile dish that it could be a treat by itself or could be combined with 
sugar or any chutneys.Adai with the crunchy onions and the spices is sure a wonderful 
delight that i love to eat it any time of the day.
Adais could be made instantly(fermentation not required) or it could be kept in the fridge and
used for the next day.I prefer using it the next day.Its a protein rich healthy easy to make food.
What more reasons do i need......here you go.
Sorry folks ,nowadays iam getting lazy taking step by step pictures.I will be in speed soon...

Method:
