Poddale Biye Sannapolo (Snake gourd Seeds Spicy Dosa ) .

In Konkani cuisine ,we make spicy , tiny dosa called ‘ Sanna Polo ‘ . These savoury dosas are served as a side dish for lunch and dinner . Normally rice is soaked and ground along with spices to make this . I have made this in a instant way . Dosa batter being the same , additive vegetables can changed . Today I have used the tender seeds of the Snake gourd to make this . But we also use onion , onion greens , tender bamboo shoots , cabbage , drumsticks leaves etc . I have already shared drumsticks flowers spicy dosa in this blog priviously . Usually in our home our G S B style ‘ Dali toy ‘ and rice is a favourite combination with this spicy dosa .
