Poha Yellow Moong Dal Dosa video. Just like rotis made of different flours have different flavours, dosas made of varied batters also have varied flavours. Not only the taste but the aroma and texture of the dosa also varies according to the ingredients used in the batter. Some batters need to be fermented while some do not. The Poha Yellow Moong Dal Dosa is of the latter variety. While it requires an hour and a half of soaking, the batter does not need to be fermented.
