Traditional South Asian Indian dish. Dosas are easy to make, but have a complex, delicious flavor. Typically served with mint chutney and sambar.

Ayurveda Notes (help)
All legumes provoke vata gas and bloating. Dosas are not an exception. Mung daal does minimal damage. Fermented food provokes pitta and the heaviness provokes kapha.

Dosha: Vata+ Pitta+ Kapha+
Quality: Dry, Mobile, Heavy
Taste: Sour, Astringent
