Pumpkin Dosa Recipe | Parangikaai Dosai Recipe with step by step pictures.
Whenever I see a recipe that I like, I bookmark it immediately. Sometimes, I just let it sit in the bookmarks. And very rarely, I get around to making the dish almost immediately.
This Pumpkin Dosa Recipe | Parangikaai Dosai Recipe falls under the second category. Priya had posted this dish on her space and I loved it so much that the very next day I got a pumpkin from the farmers market and made this for breakfast!
This is one easy way to get the kids and adult eat pumpkin.Well, no one[except me] like this veggie and I found the perfect recipe to hide it in!

Very innovative dosa recipe with pumpkin.
Very unique and interesting dosa with pumpkin. Looks very tasty.
Very interesting dosai, pumpkin dosa looks very catchy, now am tempted to give a try to this dosas.
Very intresting recipe.
Love vegetable dosai. Given that pumpkin are abundant now, this is a perfect share.
I have made parangikkai adai, but not tried the dosai. Love the color of the dosai. Great recipe PJ.
Interesting recipe. Does the pumpkin impart any sweetness to the dosa?
No Jeyashree, it does not impart sweetness to the dish. Actually we could not even feel the hint of the veggie in the dosa!!
Interesting addition of pumpkin, PJ. My MIL uses the ash gourd in dosas.
You know Its quite funny that whenever we bring pumpkin, I have to make puris with it as no one in my family eats pumpkin otherwise. That is the reason I have stopped bringing pumpkin. I should certainly try this dosa to have another dish with pumpkin, but my dosas are not good. That’s why when we met for BM meet, I wanted to learn dosa from you all experts from South. Next time, I’m going to force Valli to hold a dosa making session 🙂
Kudos ! You could work on the recipe immediately , the Dosa’s look nice and crunchy , definitely a very healthy Dosa .
Interesting n bookmaker its something I should feed my people.
So many variation that can be done with the basic dosa batter. Looks very delicious!!
