Adai or Adai Dosa is a traditional dosa recipe from the southern state of Tamil Nadu. This is a unique variation from the regular dosas we make and is a blend of rice and various dals. It is a nutritious dish and packed with protein and tastes fabulous too. This is quite a filling as well and makes it a perfect breakfast dish.

Food is not simply stuff that people eat when they are hungry. Food is awesome, delicious, inventive, colorful, inspiring, and so much more. Food binds us together. You have no idea how much it means to me when you tell me that you made a recipe and loved it. My heart fills with joy. Literally.
