Uttapam is healthy breakfast dish that originated in the southern India. It is a thick pancake like variant of dosa with toppings cooked in the batter. But this is a different uthappam which is prepared by rice, red chili, coconut and methi seeds. This is made in Appa chatti or Cheena chatti. This is a very healthy and easy to make breakfast recipe. I got this recipe from my MIL and I tried and liked it very much. So thought of sharing with you all. Here is the recipe.
INGREDIENTS:
Idly rice - 3 cup
Raw rice / Red raw rice - 1/2 cup
Fenugreek seeds - 2 tsp
Grated coconut - 1/2 cup
Red chili - 9
METHOD:
1. Soak idly rice, red raw rice and fenugreek seeds for about 3 to 4 hrs.
2. Grind the soaked ingredients along with grated coconut and red chilies to a fine batter.
3. Transfer the ground paste to a bowl, mix the salt and allow the batter to ferment for 6-8 hours.
4. Heat a cheenachatti / appachatti on medium flame.
5. Once its hot add 1 tsp sesame oil / olive oil.
6. Now add 1 ladle of batter into the centre.
7. Cover it with a lid untill it cooks and sides of the uthappam becomes crispy.
8. Remove lid, flip the dosa and cook for 30 seconds more.
9. Serve hot with a favorite side dish. Here I prepared Ridgegourd chutney a good combination for this uthappam.
