Ingredients

Topping

  • small onion finely chopped
  • tomatoes finely chopped
  • capsicum finely chopped
  • idli podi
  • carrot finely grated
  • coriander leaves finely chopped

Instructions

Uttapam:

  • Get ready with idli dosa batter first. The batter should be slightly thicker than dosa batter.
  • Heat tawa : Add 2 laddles of dosa batter to dosa tawa. I used my uttapam tawa but you can use any dosa tawa preferably iron tawa.
  • Add the topping in the first batch I have added idli podi, tomato, small onion and capsicum. Drizzle oil over the sides and on the top.
  • Cook covered for 2-3 mins.
  • Open.Flip over, press gently and cook for another 2-3 mins.
  • Flip over and serve hot!

Podi Uttapam & Carrot Uttapam

  • For the next batch I added carrot coriander, idli podi and made one plain uttapam.
  • Again cook covered for 2-3 mins.
  • Open flip over and press gently.
  • Uttapams are done, serve hot!

For Kadai Uttapam :

  • Heat oil generously in a deep curved kadai. I used my cast iron kadai.
  • Add 2 laddles of the batter into it then drizzle oil at the sides and on the top generously.
  • Cook covered for 3-4 mins. Open.
  • Flip over and cook for another 2-3 mins. Flip over and serve hot! It will be crispy and so yum. Kadai uttapam is my favorite.
  • Serve Uttapam hot with sambar and chutney!

Notes

 
  • Do not add water as we do for dosas, just mix the batter and use it.
  • Always cook in medium flame to get the perfect golden crust.
  • You can add either small or big onions as per your preference for onion Uttapam or any topping of your choice.
  • Preheat the pan before making Uttapam
