Special Thosai

Special Thosai

My thosai batter has become too sour and I didn't want to waste them. I got this idea from a magazine where there was a recipe which requires vegetable in making eggs so I thought why can't I prepare something like that with my soured thosai batter and I receive a comment from my close friend from IWA that it looks like Uttapma but I grind my batter for Uttapma using white rice and ural dhal with a pinch of baking powder to get mine soft and fluffy so I named my as Special Thosai as it has sweet taste of honey and crunchy taste of coconut. I happened to use coconut powder as I cannot get really good coconuts here.
