Utappam!!!!!
I love having it for my breakfast /luch/dinner. I am south indian food lover from childhood.
These are savory pancakes that are topped with vegetables and made using left over dosa batter. These are soft and spongy but crispy around the edges with plenty of holes and little bit sour. Of course, you can always make this using fresh dosa batter (not few days old) and get away with the sourness.
But they are thick unlike the crispy plain dosa. Uttapam is traditionally made with tomatoes or an onion-chilli mix; other common ingredient choices are coconut or mixed vegetables /CHEESE. Uttapam is sometimes called an Indian pizza or pancake and is usually eaten with sambar or chutney.
Today we are making uttapm using only onions ,chilli and coriander leaves.
Ingredients:
Dosa Batter (should be little thick, use as required)
1 cup onion (finely chopped) [I used red onion]
2 green chilli (finely chopped)
¼ cup chopped coriander leaves
salt
Oil (as required)
Method:
Sprinkle little salt over the chopped onion . Mix them along with coriander leaves and green chillies. Keep aside.
Heat a Dosa Tava on medium high heat. Make sure it is lightly greased.
Sprinkle some water in the center and when the water almost evaporates pour a ladle of dosa batter in the center.
Spread the batter in a circular motion from the center towards outside. Do not spread a lot. It should have the same thickness through out.
Sprinkle some of the onion mixture on the dosa and lightly press it with the ladle. Start from the outer edge and then toward the inner edge. Do not add too much in the middle.
Put a spoonful of oil around the edges of the dosa and little on the top.
After the bottom part has cooked, flip the dosa over and let it cook on the topping end for about 10-20 seconds.
Transfer to a plate. Serve warm with chutney, sambhar or eat them as is!
Tips :
IN ADDITION TO ONION ONE CAN USE CHOPPED CAPSICUM,SPRING ONION,CARROTS,CHEESE AS TOPPING FOR UTTAPAM.
ADDING ONION ON TOP OF BATTER MAKES UTTPAS MORE CRISPIER THAN MIXING IT WITH BATTER
