Grind them finely with the tamarind, carrot, and carrot with enough salt to a fine batter.
Add curry leaves and cumin seeds.

Cook on both sides.
Coconut chutney is suitable for this dosai.

POTATO RICE FLAKES BONDA

There are so many variations in making bondas. But this one with rice flakes and potato as a filling and a spicy batter is completely a different but a tasty one. It was a super hit when I have prepared this in my home. Hope everybody will enjoy making this.
