Corn capsicum (red yellow bell green pepper) cheese uttapam | pizza uttapa recipe

The idea of this struck to me when I was viewing the ad for dominos pizza .

So I thought why not simulate a healthy pizza recipe for kids as well as elders. With dosa batter in hand making Corn capsicum (red yellow bell pepper) uttapam  is a 10 minutes job.


Use of  red ,yellow,green  bell pepper, corn & cheese makes this a tasty healthy & attractive kids recipe .This recipe is a must try recipe on day 2 or day 3 of leftover dosa batter.





Now coming back to Uttapam ,It is one of the  tasty South Indian snack or breakfast.  It has various types like vegetable uttapam ,plain,tomato ,tomato onion,plain onion, but Onion-Green Chili is one of my all time favorite. Uthappa deserves to be called the indian pizza as it lends itself to several toppings.Traditionally uttapam is made with lightly sour dosa batter.
