Today I came up with this idea of making breakfast with Oats. I know my Son is bored of eating his daily cereals or the breakfast oats. So I wanted to keep the oats in his breakfast but make some other new recipe, like this dosa which he likes and hide the oats in it. So that I am satisfied that he is still eating his oats. :-)
This recipe turned some good crispy dosa. I think they tasted better than the regular dosas for sure. Yet another try to get a little healthy stuff into our belly. he he he....
