About This Dish
Mali Dosa is a softer, creamier take on the South Indian crepe — our fermented rice-lentil batter cooked into a slightly thicker, pillowy dosa and finished with a creamy "mali" topping that adds gentle richness without overwhelming the tang of the batter.
At SPICE ROOM Olde Town Arvada, it's a great gateway dosa for anyone new to South Indian food. Served with sambar, coconut chutney, and tomato chutney. Vegetarian.
