To start with, I love uttapams. And if it is instant uttapams best part is I can make them whenever I feel like eating them. They taste just like time consuming one's and you don't have to prepare for them ahead.
When I was a kid, I always used to order uttapam in a south-indian restaurant because that was the only thing I loved. Now I become a little experimental and like to try new things.But uttapam is and will always be my favorite. :)
They are so light that you can serve them as a snack for guests or you can have them as a whole meal in itself too. Please do try these and let me know how they turned out. Any comments or suggestions are most welcome.
Ingredients:
2 cups semolina flour
1.5 cups yogurt
1 inch piece of ginger - finely chopped
2 green peppers - finely chopped
2 medium sized tomatoes - finely chopped
1 large onion - finely chopped
1/2 cup green onions - finely chopped
crushed black pepper
2 tbsp mustard seeds
salt to taste
1 cup water
2 tbsp oil
Recipe:
1. In a large bowl add semolina flour and yogurt. Mix properly so that no lumps are formed.
2. Add water to this mixture a little at a time. Mix properly in between to avoid any lumps. Adjust amount of water added to achieve thick pouring consistency. It should not be very thin or thick, in either case your uttapam won't come out good.
3. Add ginger, green pepper and salt to taste and mix well. Keep this mixture aside inside switched off microwave for about 15 to 30 min.
4. After 30 minutes, take a sauce pan. Add 1/2 tsp oil per pancake, once heated over medium heat add pinch of mustard seeds.
5. When mustard seeds start crackling, pour a big laddle of semolina mixture and flatten it according to the thickness of the pancake you like.
6. Add all the vegetables (onions, tomatoes, spring onions). You can add any vegetable you like as grated carrots/cabbage etc.
7. Sprinkle salt and black pepper on top of it since we haven't added any salt in the vegetables.
8. Once cooked from one side flip it carefully and cook on other side until vegetables are cooked.
9. Take it out of pan once cooked and serve with any kind of chutney or sambhar.
