Do you love dosa and can have it almost every day? If yes, then this article is just for you. There's something soothing about dosa that never makes it mundane or boring. In fact, it won't be an exaggeration to say that there's hardly anything as satisfying as a crispy, light dosa. Although dosa has its roots in South Indian cuisine, today, it holds a constant and significant position in Indian food culture. Wherever you visit across the country, you will find at least one dosa joint in every city. Besides, many of us frequently make it at home too. While a classic dosa comprises a flaky crepe with spicy potato filling and is served with a portion of sambar and chutneys, we find different variations of the recipe country-wide - paneer dosa being one such popular choice.
In India, paneer is a staple food ingredient for every vegetarian, as well as for non-vegetarians. It is tasty, easy to make and includes a good amount of protein to our everyday diet. Hence, we look for options to sneak paneer in almost every dish we can - from curries to rice and paratha. Likewise, we also love adding some juicy and succulent pieces of fresh paneer to the delightful dosas. This helps us give a delicious and protein-rich twist to our regular meal.
