ZUCCHINI AND POTATO WHEAT DOSA

 Wheat Dosa is very common in south Indian homes. Most of the times jaggery is added to it and we call it Vella Dosai, meaning jaggery Dosa or sweet Dosa. In recent times I have seen this as liquid dough Roti and I wonder how one calls it a Roti. In my understanding, what we knead is a dough, and what we pour is a batter, right? So, I console my self saying this name has stuck probably because it tastes more like a Roti/Paratha , but the texture is that of Dosa. Whatever it is Dosa or Roti it tastes good, it is healthy as it is made of wheat, I have included vegetables and the best part, because of all these reasons it could be served as breakfast, lunch or dinner😇.

The vegetables used here are entirely customizable, but I would recommend adding a small potato, as I found it gives a good texture and softness to the Dosa. This dish is wholesome, no mess and quick fix, especially in these days where we are all working from home. When the work is endless, we all need quick fixes and this dish/Dosa is just that.
