Not only the classic plain dosa, but many unique varieties like masala paneer tikka, cheese dosa, sweet coffee dosa and mint dosa are available here. Every dosa is different in its taste and texture, creating a memorable experience for the foodies of the city.
Plain dosa is a classic, but the creative and wonderful culture of dosa on the streets of Hyderabad would hardly be found anywhere else in the world. There are not only 6 but even more types of dosa available here, but we will tell you about the 6 most popular and unique variations.
Paneer Tikka Dosa
If North Indian taste is mixed with South Indian dish, then something similar is created. In this, spicy and prepared Paneer Tikka in Tandoori style is filled inside the Dosa. The smoky flavor of Paneer Tikka and the mild sour taste of Dosa make a great pair. This is a heavy and tasty protein-rich option for vegetarians.
Cheese Dosa
It’s a great way to mix western influences with local flavour. As the name suggests, a melting substance is added inside or on top of the dosa. When a hot dosa comes in front of you, long strings of cheese come out of it. It can be made with masala dosa or plain dosa.
Coffee Dosa
This is the most unique and famous dosa of Hyderabad, which is considered to be a gift of the city. This is not a coffee-flavored dosa. It is called “coffee” because it was made and served in the famous “coffee” shops of Hyderabad like Nimrah, Gaffa, etc. and even today, its taste is spicy and strong.
Pessert Dosa
This is for those people who are fond of eating sweets. This is a sweet dosa. It is also called pesart. To make it, sugar is added to the dosa dough or after it is made, sugar, jaggery or chocolate sauce is sprinkled on it. At some places it is also served with ghee and jaggery. This is the most favorite variety of children.
Rava Dosa
Although it is famous all over South India, it has a different identity on the streets of Hyderabad. It is made from semolina (rava), maida and rice flour. It is made by sprinkling the batter directly on the pan without spreading it.
Pudina Dosa
This is a refreshing option for those who want a slightly different and fresh taste. To make it, mint chutney is added to the dosa batter or while making dosa, mint leaves and spices are added to it.
