Loni Dosa is a soft, spongy and porous Dosa which is quite popular in Bangalore and Pune. Beetroot variation held me spell bound and made me recreate the recipe in my kitchen. I started testing the recipe with an idea to make it Healthy making skipping Loni/Butter. A generous amount of butter is added in the dosa that makes it very tasty.
