Sprinkle a handful of grated mozzarella or cheddar cheese over the egg along with the other toppings.
Before adding the egg, spread a thin layer of pre-cooked potato masala (aloo masala) on the dosa.

Sticking usually happens for two reasons: the tawa is not hot enough, or it is not seasoned properly. Ensure the tawa is heated on medium-high heat until a sprinkle of water sizzles away instantly. Also, wiping it with an oiled onion before each dosa helps create a non-stick surface.
Absolutely! This recipe is a perfect way to use leftover dosa batter. Just make sure to bring the batter to room temperature for about 20-30 minutes before you start cooking for best results.
Yes, you can customize the toppings to your liking. If you don't like onions, you can omit them or replace them with other finely chopped vegetables like tomatoes (deseeded), capsicum, or grated carrots.
