Masala Dosa Masala

Many of us love the Masala Dosa - not just any dosa, but the masala dosa. Obviously the aloo masala served with the dosa appeases our palate the most. Well, this delightful dish is also served with puri and chapathi. Making this dish has been quite a challenge - although its a very simple recipe, I just couldn't get the restaurant style taste during my attempts. Luckily, one fine day, my hubby made it and many memories came gushing down. I was elated to learn the perfect recipe, better than in any restaurant I had. Take a bow, here comes the awesome recipe.
