Prepare the egg topping. In a bowl, crack the eggs. Add the chopped onion, green chili, and coriander leaves. Season with salt, black pepper, and turmeric powder. Whisk well with a fork until frothy. You can do this for each dosa individually or whisk all eggs and toppings together in a large bowl if making them back-to-back.
Make the Egg Dosa. Heat a non-stick or cast-iron tawa (griddle) over medium-high heat. Once hot, reduce the heat to medium-low. Pour a ladleful of dosa batter (about 1/2 cup) onto the center of the tawa. Working quickly, use the back of the ladle to spread the batter in a circular motion to form a thin dosa. Drizzle about 1/2 tbsp of oil around the edges. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until the top surface looks cooked and the bottom is light golden. Pour a portion of the prepared egg mixture over the dosa and use a spoon to spread it evenly. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the egg is almost set. Carefully flip the dosa and cook for 30-60 seconds on the other side, until the egg is fully cooked and has golden-brown spots. Fold the dosa in half and slide it onto a plate.
Repeat and Serve. Repeat the process with the remaining batter and egg mixture to make all the dosas. Serve hot with coconut chutney, tomato chutney, or sambar.
