Step 1
In a bowl, whisk 1 cup dosa mix with 1.5 cups water until smooth; let rest while you make sambar.
Step 2
In a pot, combine 0.5 cup toor dal, 1 cup mixed vegetables, 2 tbsp sambar powder, and 2 cups water. Bring to a boil, then simmer until dal is soft and vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes.
Step 3
Stir in 0.25 cup coconut milk and simmer 2 minutes until slightly thickened; season with salt.
Step 4
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high. Pour a ladleful of batter and spread into a thin circle; cook until edges crisp and golden, about 2 minutes per side.
Step 5
Serve dosa hot with sambar and a squeeze of lime.
