LADY’S FINGER DOSA / OKRA ( BHINDI ) DOSA / BENDEKAI DOSA

Never in my wildest imagination i had thought that anybody could make dosa out of lady’s finger !!! Few months before in a FB group when i first saw these crispy ” Lady’s Finger Dosa / Bhindi Dosa “.. i was like ” What !!! Dosa out of Lady’s finger !! How will it taste ?? Will it not be sticky ??!! “. But i was so amazed seeing the okra dosa pic , that i went ahead and bookmarked the recipe as must try. I am glad i did try as i was in for a wonderful surprise… Wow !! The dosas had turned so thin,crispy,flavorful and of course super yummy and easy… Now these Lady’s finger have become a regular in my home…

When i tried this dosa 1st time , i was so panicked seeing the dosa batter. It was so so slimy. I was so upset and felt what do i do with this batter now?? To my surprise when i did dosa out of them.. they were so perfect just like any other dosa. My mom and friends too took the recipe from me and tried and were amused by the end result.Everyone just loved them. Do try friends.. i’m sure you too would love it and add it to your breakfast list….It ‘s also a good way to finish of those few remaining Okras sitting in the fridge. Here we go…
