Ganapati
Peckham·$$
Beetroot Dosa
£10.75
Bright purple dosa tinted with beetroot, filled with seasonal vegetables.
Tip: This is a good choice if you want something beyond the standard masala dosa. The beetroot changes the flavour slightly -- sweeter and earthier -- but the technique is the same.
#2
Dosa N Chutny
Tooting·$
Onion Rava Dosa
£6.00
Crispy semolina dosa with onions and green chillies.
Tip: Try this for variety — it's crisper and more delicate than the standard masala dosa. Often recommended for second dosa if you order multiple.

Babur

Wild Mushroom and Pea Dosa
£9.50
A crisp South Indian crepe filled with savory wild mushrooms and peas.
Tip: The wild mushrooms add a great umami depth. It's a lighter way to start the meal before the heavier meat dishes.

Dosa N Chutny
Tooting·$
Masala Dosa
£6.50
Crispy rice and lentil crepe filled with spiced potato and onion.
Tip: Order with filter coffee — the pairing is traditional and reviewers rave about it. The massive size means one dosa is often a full meal.

Peckham·$$
Masala Dosa
£10.75
Crispy fermented rice-and-lentil crepe filled with spiced potato, served with sambar and chutneys.
Tip: Break off pieces of the dosa with your hands and dip into the sambar and chutney. You can also tear off pieces and scoop up the potato filling. Do not use a knife and fork if you can avoid it -- it is designed to be hand food.
