DOSAS (INDIAN-STYLE PANCAKES)

Dosas are a thin, savory crepe-like Indian pancake traditionally eaten for breakfast, but I like them anytime. These may not be very authentic, but they are a tasty alternative that appeals to the typical American pancake.

In response to a request, I haven't tried these, but they sound intriguing. This is an Indian lentil and rice pancake. The mixture needs to soften and set for sometime, you'll need at least 1 1/2 days to complete the process.
