Pour one ladleful of the Dosa Batter on the tava and spread in a circular motion to make a thin dosa.
Place a little butter in the centre, add 1 tbsp of onions, 1 tbsp of cabbage, 1 tbsp of tomatoes, 1 tbsp of capsicum, a few pieces of green chillies, 1 tbsp of tomato sauce, 1 tbsp of chilli garlic sauce, 1/4 tsp soya sauce, 1/ 4 tsp chilli powder and 1/4 tsp garam masala, mix well on the Dosa itself, cover and cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
Add the paneer, 1 tbsp of spring onion greens, salt, another ½ tsp of butter, mix well, cover and cook for an another minute.
Fold over the dosa to shape ot like a Masala Dosa or a roll.
