No Rice Bottle gourd Dosa

Bottle gourd Dosa is made with Just bottle gourd and Millets like Sama, Tina. You can also substitute it with rice if you are not a millets person. This is a change from same old dosa variety. I always make it crispy without adding Urid dal if you like soft dosa add just 2Tbsp urid dal and grind it then you will get more softer version of this same dosa. Just half an hour soaking of Millet is enough then you can make it as soon as you grind it.
