Like the rest of India in Goa to there is a dosa made called polle! There are no dals of any kind used. We use methi seeds that are extremely healthy, especially for diabetics. Making this polle with fenugreek seeds makes palatable.
I will vouch for it for hubby ate them but complained they were sweet, they are mildly sweet by the way, but ate them but enjoyed them for breakfast. I will recommend smearing a warm polle with homemade ghee as an evening snack with tea. They taste awesome! In case you are looking for another delicious easy breakfast check my Teezan|Finger Millet Porridge| Ragi Porridge or Eggless Ragi Pancakes Recipe.
Why Dosa today? Simple today is Monday and a new week at FoodieMonday Bloghop! Every week we as a group vote and decide on themes. This week Priya is our hostess and we voted for #257DosaDen.

Making a dosa for breakfast or a snack is a common thing as it pairs well with gravies too? So you can make them for dinner or lunch too!
There is hardly any difference you can add lentils to make polle too! The same batter can give you the fat spongy and lacy dosa. A dosa is referred to as Polle in Karwar region too.
This is the image of my batter for Chitiaps, lot of my friends sent me private messages asking what I was up to? How did I manage these colours? The answer is when I ground my batter

Mayuri Patel says
I've made polle long time ago using egg in the batter and love this sweet dosa. Perfect as Sunday brunch and so flavorful because of the coconut. Do you its so similar to what the coastal people make here especially during Ramadan fasting and its called vibibi. The batter is made from rice and coconut.
ArchanaPotdar says
I am really amazed all the time how food binds us all! What is not heard in my neighbouring state is in another country. Food does bind us all.
