Ingredients

Servings:4
  • 3 cups Fermented Idli/Dosa batter
  • 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
  • 1 medium Tomato, deseeded and chopped
  • 2 pieces Green chili, finely chopped(optional)
  • 1/2 cup Carrot, grated
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander leaves, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Ginger, finely minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil or Ghee
  • 1/4 cup Capsicum (Bell pepper), finely chopped(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, mix the chopped onions, tomatoes, green chilies, carrots, capsicum, ginger, and coriander together with a pinch of salt.

  2. 2

    Place a non-stick tawa or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with a few drops of oil.

  3. 3

    Pour a ladleful of the fermented batter onto the center of the tawa, spreading it slightly into a thick circle; do not make it thin like a dosa.

  4. 4

    Immediately sprinkle a generous portion of the mixed vegetable topping evenly over the surface of the batter.

  5. 5

    Gently press the vegetables down with a spatula so they stick to the batter while it is still wet.

  6. 6

    Drizzle a teaspoon of oil around the edges and cover with a lid to cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden brown.

  7. 7

    Flip the uttapam carefully and cook the vegetable side for 1-2 minutes until the onions are slightly caramelized.

  8. 8

    Flip back and serve hot with coconut chutney and sambar.
