The first time that I made Dosa for myself, I felt nostalgic. I was not sure what it was. The smell of ghee on the batter, the familiar crackling sound when the batter touched the pan and the delicate wrist action reminded me of my mother making the perfect circle with the ladle. Hailing from the culturally rich South India, I felt immediately at ease when I realised I had brought my home here with me as every South Indian house smelled of Dosa at least once every day. It is our staple food, our go-to dish when nothing else worked and the most comfortable and quick choice for a tired, overworked, and hungry member of the house. You can never go wrong with a Dosa.
