Nothing can beat our own south indian varieties. At one stage we crave for dosas and idlis espescially when we live at a place where we are not fortuante enough to have this. The most favourite of most is Masala Dosa. If i serve the same with spicy mysore masala....Mmmmm.. Caught ur expression ;) Am going to spill the method of preparation.
