Dosa is a staple in South Indian cuisine, believed to have originated in the Tamil region of India. The dish dates back over 2,000 years and was first mentioned in ancient Tamil literature, "Azhvaar" literature, as "dosai." Over time, dosa spread across India and beyond, with regional variations like the Masala Dosa, Rava Dosa, and Egg Dosa emerging in different parts of the country.

Egg Onion Dosa is a modern twist on the traditional dosa, with the addition of scrambled eggs and onions, which are ingredients commonly enjoyed in South Indian breakfasts. The idea of adding eggs to a dosa likely emerged to create a more filling, protein-rich version of the popular dish. Today, Egg Onion Dosa is loved by many for its delicious combination of crispy dosa and savory egg filling, making it a popular choice in both homes and restaurants across India.
