I love dosa but peanut dosa if probably my favourite! Dosa are a typical South India dish made with fermented rice and urad dhal.
Naturally gluten free they are easy-to-make.
While urad dal hasn’t been properly tested, we know that chana dal is low FODMAP up to 46 g and toor dal up to 36 g (raw weight), which leads to the hypothesis that urad dal may be low FODMAP up to a certain point. Additionally, the Monash University app indicates that dosa is low FODMAP up to 80 g. Therefore, you can enjoy one dosa !
