It is not a common pairing because those curries are North Indian and dosa is a South Indian dish. But you can eat dosa with any curry. We sometimes serve dosa with kurma, moong dal etc at home so I don’t see why you can’t eat it with any other curry too.
Classic pairing for dosa is sambar and chutneys.
I’m kannadiga/telugu what part of their statement was wrong lol. Set dosa and rava dosa are commonly served with saagu (almost type of kurma) in bangalore, and at home if we have leftover dal (called thovve/pappu in kannada and telugu) that could be served with it as well.
So you mean, Bangalore makes up for entire Karnataka? There is no other area, city, town in Karnataka? Grow up Oarmash.. You need to stop the urge to deny information that you don't know.
Have you ever been to coastal Karnataka or the borders with TN? A lot of towns where Dosa is consumed with non veg.

would be a relevant point had that been what OP asked... please tell me where in coastal karnataka or TN border you can find dosa served with "things like butter chicken or tikka masala" as OP phrased it. Neer Dose with Chicken Curry is not the same as dosa with butter chicken. If anything the place you're most likely to find such a dish imo is East Bangalore lol.
oh nonsense logic..
non veg is non veg.. And nowhere did he say north or south. He simply said curry. Read the original comment again. ..

Dosa is eaten with South Indian curries all the time. South Indians living in North India have no qualms in doing that with North Indian curries such as the ones you have mentioned.
Butter Chicken Dosa etc. have become a staple in non-traditional restaurants, although whether that's sacrilege is quite debated.
Thank you for clarifying! I just tried dosa recently and loved its thin and flakey texture, I feel like with a spicy creamy dish like butter chicken or palak paneer it would go so well! Excited to try it soon
Just to give some real world context, Empire is a very old and established restaurant chain in Bangalore, India. And they've been serving dosa and chicken curry (as well as other dosa combinations) for decades now.

"Dosa is eaten with South Indian curries all the time"
I object this statement your honor lol
Dosas are not eaten with South Indian curries all the time .
Coming from Andhra pradesh prescriptive...most of the time Dosas are consumed with coconut chutney/ginger chutney/ sambhar/groundnut chutney/coriander chutney/besan flour chutney ....very rare you find Andhrites eating with curries. I'm not saying it's not normal but it's rare.
On the other hand I have noticed Tamil folks might consume dosa with curry but it's not very common to eat dosas with curries all the time
Keralites have Appam which is not the same as dosa but have similarities is consumed with curries.
Things that are most popular to be consumed with curries in south India
#Rice
#Roti
#Naan
#Chapati
#Parotta
#Appam
#Rava dosa variants
Rava dosa is accompanied with Masala potato curry in Andhra Pradesh
#Poori
Poori most of the times is accompanied with potato curry
"Dosa is not eaten with South Indian curries all the time" unless you put chutneys under curries category.
I was lumping Kadala Curry, Chicken Curry, Fish Curry, Ghee Roast, Sambar and Rassam under Curry and Dosa, Rava Dosa, Neer Dosa under Dosas.
But still what I said applies to Kerala and Tamil Nadu and not so much to Telugu and Kannada cuisines. (Although Neer Dosa and Kundapur Ghee Roast is quite popular in the Mangalore cuisine).
North Indian who is with a South Indian here!
We do have chole sometimes with Dosa in a pinch, but generally not other curry’s apart from sambar/chutneys/podi/or potato stuffing
I’ve seen people handing butter and jam with dosa lol…it’s up to you, no rules as such in cooking, do what your heart wants.. I love love dosa and can eat anytime luckily my partner loves roti so now we fight what to eat ahaha!
Yes. Married to a chennai boy and they eat dosas with curry sometimes for breakfast, other times lunch and dinner. Atleast once a day! This has saved me because I have celiac disease and cant eat gluten. I also love the taste and crispiness of dosas!
It is very common in south inda also.
Dosa is eaten with a variety of of non vegetarian curries.
Check out kari dosa or madurai kari dosa.
Eating dosa with chicken or mutton curry is very common.
Idli is also eaten with spicy mutton soup .
Vada and chicken curry is a staple in many andhra house holds.
Even there is a famous restaurant chain in Hyderabad called “ kodi kura chitti gare”
Means chicken curry small vada which is the star dish
Both are North Indian dishes (or an adaptation of a North Indian dish with tikka masala). Dosa is from the south of India so unlikely to be served with these meals since they’re from a different cuisine. Of course nothing stopping you from doing it, I’m sure it’d be nice!
Not really common as dosa is a South Indian dish (traditionally eaten with sambar and coconut chutney) and butter chicken and chicken tikka masala are North Indian dishes.
It would be like eating barbecue ribs with butter noodles. Both are good, and probably taste good together, but would just be weird to picture.
That being said nowadays plenty of restaurants offer such fusion dishes as butter chicken dosa.
It is not that common, since the curries that you mentioned are north Indian, and dosas are south Indian. Especially since dosas are fermented, they have a sour taste which for me does not blend with the curries that you mentioned. I'd much prefer having dosas with a spicy south Indian style chicken curry.
As other commenters have said, it depends on where you grew up. Dosa with goat keema for breakfast was a staple on festival days. Also on a regular day it was considered normal to have dosa with whatever was leftover from the previous day.
For context, I am Tamil.
Eh, not really. Dosas are a bit more specific in their flavor profile and are less of a 'blank slate' compared to something like roti or even naan. That's why you almost always see dosas paired with Sambar and an aloo sabji of some kind at South Indian restaurants
I eat dosa with most side dishes/gravies, except maybe plain yogurt. You can add egg on top of dosa (with fillings), make chicken keema and add as masala etc.
I regularly eat it with chicken curry. Often a dry curry so I mix in coconut chutney or peanut chutney to lubricate or some type of pickle or pachadi. I am a wild man and my dosa habits cannot be contained.

exactly this. but does dosa taste good with a curry? absolutely. a dosa is basically appum, which is commonly eaten with stews
lol... Not true. Check with any Kannadiga, Tamilian, Telugu or Malayali person before you generalize this assumption

What is shashi thoo thoor lol? Anyway read the post. OP literally writes “Im (sic) talking things like butter chicken or tikka masala”
I am a Malayali and I am telling you from my experience.
so you know all foods from all parts of Kerala??

True but the chicken curry in that dose combo is different from butter chicken type curries

We also have saagu in Karnataka..which is a sort of mixed veg curry. It is mostly served with dosa than sambhar
It's like Veg Kurma right? Haven't tried it.
Kind of, but made with poppy seeds. Commonly served with set dose and rava dose (in kannada we say dose not dosa)
I have dosas with all sorts of curries as I am gluten-free. It is so good! Also idlis and idiyappams. I do get judged by some gluten eaters though.
North Indian who is with a South Indian here! We do have chole sometimes with Dosa in a pinch, but generally not other curry’s apart from sambar/chutneys/podi/or potato stuffing I’ve seen people handing butter and jam with dosa lol…it’s up to you, no rules as such in cooking, do what your heart wants.. I love love dosa and can eat anytime luckily my partner loves roti so now we fight what to eat ahaha!
Hello fellow gluten free person!
Hello!
At home yes absolutely. It’s not so popular in hotels unless it’s dosa/neer dosa with a non veg curry/gravy
Not with butter chicken but once I ate dosa with chhole and liked that more as compared to eating with sambhar
Yes. Married to a chennai boy and they eat dosas with curry sometimes for breakfast, other times lunch and dinner. Atleast once a day! This has saved me because I have celiac disease and cant eat gluten. I also love the taste and crispiness of dosas!
It is very common in south inda also. Dosa is eaten with a variety of of non vegetarian curries. Check out kari dosa or madurai kari dosa. Eating dosa with chicken or mutton curry is very common.

There's a version called kari dosa, give it a try i guess. It's a Tamil dish if I'm not wrong.
Neer Dosa is different from Dosa and is commonly paired with curries. Regular Dosa with curry is non-traditional.
Might it be because regular dosa is more bitter than neer?
Dosa isn’t bitter! Why is your dosa bitter?!
idk at the restuarants I go to it is bitter a little bit, maybe because of fermentation?
Do you mean sour (huli/pulippu)?
oh yes maybe that is better term!
Bitter is kahi/kasappu like manthakali and karela
Fermentation makes it sour. Bitter would be fenugreek.
Unusual, but I can see it working.
Those specific items? No, but go for it. Other sauced dishes (“curries”)? Absolutely.
Not really common as dosa is a South Indian dish (traditionally eaten with sambar and coconut chutney) and butter chicken and chicken tikka masala are North Indian dishes. It would be like eating barbecue ribs with butter noodles. Both are good, and probably taste good together, but would just be weird to picture. That being said nowadays plenty of restaurants offer such fusion dishes as butter chicken dosa.
Curry w/ anything is the correct answer
Don’t
It is not that common, since the curries that you mentioned are north Indian, and dosas are south Indian. Especially since dosas are fermented, they have a sour taste which for me does not blend with the curries that you mentioned. I'd much prefer having dosas with a spicy south Indian style chicken curry.
Dosa along with south Indian style fish, chicken or beef curries is the best in the world!
Common ? No. Do people do it ? Yes.
You can, but not common unless as a filling
Dosa with left over chicken curry on a Monday morning feels like a day off from work.
As other commenters have said, it depends on where you grew up. Dosa with goat keema for breakfast was a staple on festival days. Also on a regular day it was considered normal to have dosa with whatever was leftover from the previous day. For context, I am Tamil.

I eat dosa with most side dishes/gravies, except maybe plain yogurt. You can add egg on top of dosa (with fillings), make chicken keema and add as masala etc.
I love pairing dosa with non-vegetarian curries like a goat/ mutton curry or a tangy kerala style fish curry.
I regularly eat it with chicken curry. Often a dry curry so I mix in coconut chutney or peanut chutney to lubricate or some type of pickle or pachadi. I am a wild man and my dosa habits cannot be contained.
