Dosa is a fermented crepe made from rice batter and black lentils . It is a staple dish in South Indian states of Tamil nadu , Andhra Pradesh , Karnataka , Kerala and Telangana . It is also popular in other parts of India, and other countries like Sri Lanka , Mauritius , Myanmar , Nepal , Bangladesh , Malaysia and Singapore .
Dosa is indigenous to South India ; its exact birthplace in that region is a matter of conjecture. According to food historian K. T. Achaya , dosa (as dosai ) was already in use in ancient Tamil country around the 1st century AD, as per references in the Sangam literature . According to P. Thankappan Nair , dosa originated in the Udupi town of present-day Karnataka.
In popular tradition, the origin of dosa is linked to Udupi, probably because of the dish's association with the Udupi restaurants . Also, the original Tamil dosa was softer and thicker. The thinner and crispier version of dosa, which became popular all over India, was first made in present-day Karnataka.
