  On a flat frying pan, the batter has to be poured and spread as a thin round. Add a teaspoon of cooking oil/ghee/butter to one sides of the Dosa.
  Turn in to other side, with the table spoon spread the masala over the half part of dosa
  Cover another half over it. When it turns golden brown, its ready to be taken off the frying pan and ready to serve too. The thinner and crispier the dosa, the better it tastes!
