Method :-

1). Clean the spinach and wash it in water for 3-4 times. Chop it roughly and add green chillies, cumin powder along with salt in a blender. Puree it to a smooth paste along with little water and mix it with the dosa batter. 

2). Heat dosa pan and spread as a thin or a thick dosa. I personally prefer thin and crispy dosa. For softer version, make thick dosa. 

3). Drizzle a tsp of oil around the corners of dosa and allow it to cook untill it turns golden brown.  

4). Do not flip the dosa, if you want it to be crispy.Use a spatula and fold the dosa and remove it. 

Healthy dosa is ready. Serve hot with any chutney, I served it with Almond Chutney.
