Cucumber dosa is a nourishing and tasty dosa made from raw rice and cucumber.  It is very cooling to the body and grated cucumber added to the batter gives a light green colour to the dosa.  Green chillies and ginger added to it makes it more flavourful.  Cucumber is tradionally had with butter, but it also goes well with sambar or coconut chutney.  It is better to make the  cucumber dosa immediately once the batter is made to get the goodness of the cucumber.
