Chicken Dosa is an Indian pancake stuffed with a delicious spicy chicken filling.
By Anita Mokashi
We had been to Anjappar Restaurant for lunch on Sunday. This dish was on their menu. It was so delicious that I couldn’t stop myself making it again at home. It’s a Chettinad Delicacy.
Chettinad cuisine is the cuisine of the Chettinad region of Tamil Nadu state in South India. It is famous for its use of a variety of spices used in preparing mainly non-vegetarian food. The dishes are hot and pungent with fresh ground masalas, and topped with a boiled egg that is usually considered essential part of a meal.
