Palak Paneer Dosa is a crispy dosa stuffed with creamy and healthy palak paneer. It’s a great recipe for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Yesterday night i made palak paneer for dinner and thought of making dosa with the leftovers. Idea turned out to be hit.
I remember eating roadside dosas in Mumbai. Dosa is a famous street food in Mumbai. You will be surprised with the interesting stuffing options available in street dosa. It can vary from chinese dosa, pav bhaji dosa, cheese dosa, etc.
