Ragi dosa combined with curds forms a nice soft brownish dosa which is rich in calcium.

Yummy and delicious is what describes this snack... The USP of this uttapa is the batter takes only 2 hours for fermenting as compared to other uttapa batters which calls for at least 8 hours of fermenting. Try it!!
