Details and Ingredients

Pepper Plain Dosa is a cherished staple of South Indian cuisine, elevated with a spicy pepper kick, popular in Kerala for its bold flavor. The batter is crafted from a fermented blend of rice and urad dal (black gram), seasoned with freshly ground black pepper, and spread thinly on a hot griddle with a drizzle of ghee or oil to achieve a crisp, golden texture. Unlike its masala counterpart, Pepper Plain Dosa is served without a filling, allowing the peppery zest and natural taste of the fermented batter to shine through. Accompanied by coconut chutney and sambar (a lentil-based stew with vegetables), this dish is light yet satisfying, making it an ideal choice for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. A true embodiment of Kerala’s vegetarian culinary heritage with a spicy twist.
