Instructions
- On a well seasoned tawa (griddle) or a flat skillet spread the dosa batter and let it cook.

- Once the top side looks cooked and the batter has firmed up, add the required amount of pav bhaji on the center of the dosa.
- Spread the pav bhaji evenly on the dosa with a spoon or spatula.
- Sprinkle some finely chopped onions.
- Once the dosa gets browned from the bottom, then fold both the sides of the dosa.

- You can add some finely chopped tomatoes, grated carrots or beets, finely chopped capsicum as toppings besides the onions.
- Choice of fat can be any neutral tasting oil, or butter or ghee.
