Masala dosa or masale dose is a variation of the popular South Indian food dosa, which has its origins in TuluvaMangalorean cuisine. It is made from rice, lentils, potato, methi, and curry leaves, and served with chutneys and sambar.
Though it was only popular in South India, it can be found in all other parts of the country and overseas. In South India, preparation of masala dosa varies from city to city.

Mysore masala dosa has a red chutney made from red chillies, onion, and garlic applied to the inside of the dosa before placing the potato stuffing on top of it.
