Crispy dosa bites are the ultimate snack hack—golden, bite-sized, and packed with flavor that'll have everyone reaching for seconds. If you're ready to turn your dosa game into a snacking sensation, here's the crispy dosa bites recipe you've been waiting for!
2
Start with 100 grams of idly dosa batter—perfectly tangy and ready to go. Give it a quick stir to ensure it's smooth and consistent. For an extra flavor twist, mix in a pinch of chat masala and some freshly chopped coriander leaves. This step isn't mandatory but trust me, it takes these bites to the next level.
3
Heat oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat for frying. To check if it's ready, drop in a tiny bit of batter—it should sizzle and float to the top immediately. Pro tip: Too hot and they'll burn; too cold and they'll absorb oil, so aim for that Goldilocks temperature.

Spoon small dollops of the batter directly into the hot oil. Don't overcrowd the pan give these bites space to puff up and crisp evenly. Fry them in batches, turning occasionally, until they're golden brown and irresistibly crispy. Drain them on paper towels to soak up any excess oil because nobody wants a soggy snack.
5
While the dosa bites are still warm, sprinkle them with another pinch of chat masala for that extra zesty kick. Melt some Fresho Organic Butter and drizzle it generously over the bites—this is the glow-up moment they deserve.
6
