Corn dosai made with dried corn, rice and urad dal as ingredients. Just three ingredients for making this delicious dosai.

I have been told to try this recipe a couple of years back by my BIL, but somehow I missed the recipe or I was confused with lots of doubts. Again last week my friend Sugapriya sent me a voice note that she had prepared chola dosai. She sent me the outcome of the recipe too as pictures. She made paniyaram with the same batter too.

Not with sweet corn, the good old corn, firm and flavourful one we used to enjoy as kids. If you have excess of this corn as fresh ones, just peel it off and dry it for couple of days (or can use it as such too if old) and utilize to prepare the dosa or paniyaram.
