Masoor dal or split red lentil is a rich source of vitamin A, C and E. These vitamins are essential for maintaining healthy eyesight and vision. Regular consumption of masoor dal protects against eye defects and disorders such as cataract and muscle degradation. This is a no ferment dosa recipe and best suited for breakfast. My family loved it and I am sure everyone would fall in love with these golden crisp delicious dosas.
