It is a snack or breakfast originated from South Indian. Its batter is made from lentils and rice blended with water, left to ferment overnight. The batter will then spread out into a circular shape and is fried with edible oil until golden brown. It will be folded in half and served with a side accompaniment such as sambar, wet chutneys (coconut), dry chutneys (powder of spices and desiccated coconut), Indian pickle, milagai podi or a dry spice mixture, and chicken or mutton curry.

There are varieties of dosa including egg dosa, chili dosa, onion dosa, ghee dosa, butter dosa, thin and crispy roast, long family roast, long paper dosa, green dosa (dosa stuffed with fresh vegetables and mint chutney), chow-chow dosa (dosa stuffed with Chinese noodles), and cheese dosa.
