You might have tasted this cuisine in a variety of fillings, ranging from green veggies, potatoes, paneer, and more. But here is a twist.

Welcome to this delicious dosa fusion where the comfort of the native wraps combines with mayo indulgence.
So, whether you like flavours of tandoori mayonnaise, cheesy garlic mayonnaise, or cheesy garlic variants, get ready to enhance the taste of the usual dosas you have been trying for years!
Here is a quick dosa recipe with mayonnaise that does not need elaborate prep but is delicious enough to impress.
First things first. Before you begin with your dosa recipe, ensure you have all the ingredients in place, because you do not want to pause rolling out mid-way. Here is the checklist of items you need:
For the dosa batter
2 cups rice
1/2 cup urad dal
1 tsp fenugreek seeds
Salt to taste
Note: You can also use a readymade option if you are short on time
For the veg mayonnaise filling
1 cup cabbage (shredded)
1/2 cup carrots (sliced into thin, uniform stripes)
1/2 cup capsicum (finely sliced)
1/2 cup onions (finely chopped)
1/2 cup corn kernels
Any of these mayonnaise, based on taste preference:
3 tbsp veg mayonnaise
2 tbsp cheesy garlic mayonnaise (for a zingy cheesy kick)
2 tbsp tandoori mayonnaise (for a smoky flavour)
2 tbsp achari mayonnaise (for adding a tangy twist)
Salt and pepper to taste
For Garnish (optional but fun!)
Fresh coriander leaves
A dash of chilli flakes
A drizzle of flavoured mayo for an extra edge
Here is the step-by-step guide to your Instagram-worthy dosa recipes with mayonnaise:
Take a container with water and soak the rice, urad dal, and fenugreek seeds in it overnight. It will attain a soft texture that can easily be ground into a smooth paste. Ferment this paste for 8-10 hours. Finally, when you are ready to spread it over the pan, add salt to taste. Moreover, if you are going for a quick alternative, simply grab the ready-to-use dosa wrap and begin cooking.
Add a few drops of oil to the pan and heat it for a few seconds. Toss in the veggies that you chopped — onion, carrot, cabbage, capsicum, and corn. Cook the vegetables for 3-4 minutes in the pan. Ensure it is soft enough yet crunchy. Once it achieves that texture, take it off the flame.
Now comes your mayo magic:
Mix your favourite Nutralite mayonnaise, and watch your basic veggies filling turn into a coated, luscious, creamy layer!
Here comes the most exciting part of the dosa recipe. Before spreading out the batter, heat a flat non-stick tawa or pan. Take a scoop of batter and spread it on the tawa in a circular motion. Sprinkle a little oil and cook it till it turns crisp and golden brown.
Now take a generous portion of mayo veggie filling and place it in the centre. Slowly fold the dosa into a wrap and roll it up tightly without breaking its exterior while allowing the creamy filling to add to every layer. Garnish it with freshly chopped coriander with a glaze of flavoured mayo!
