Notes

1. This is very good to make Masala Dosa. It can go with Chapathis, Rotis or Pooris as well.
2. For Puri Masala, no need for the seasoning and adding a tbls coconut oil, alongwith curry leaves in the end will give a special flavour.
3. * Vary the number of green chillies to control the spice level.
