My kids and husband really liked it! They haven’t liked moong dal dosas in the past but with the addition of quinoa/oats/rice they tasted really good! I couldn’t get them crispy though..
Thanks you for sharing this. Glad that your family liked the taste. Cooking at medium heat should make it crispy. Did you cook the dosa at medium heat?
