On my last visit to India I had this at a restaurant in Erode and really liked it. I have been trying to perfect this recipe for a while to get the restaurant taste,  bit this is almost close.

Instant Oats Wheat Dosa

This is an excellent alternative for regular dosa and takes very little prep time. If you don’t have Oats flour handy, dry roast Oats for 2-3 mins until they are brown and grind into fine flour.

I don’t think there’s a better way to eat mini idlis other than soaked in sambar. You can make varieties based on the ingredients you have at home like masala idli, fried idli, pepper fried idili etc…
