Dosa ingredients
- Urad dal 1 cup
- Rice 2 cups
- Salt 2 tsp
- Vegetable oil 1/2 cup
- Tomatoes 2 medium (2 cups chopped)
- Onion 2 medium (2 cups chopped)
- Patta Gobhi (Cabbage) 1/4 (2 cups chopped finely)
- Chopped green chillies 10
- Chopped coriander leaves 1/2 cup
Method
- For Batter: Pick urad dal thoroughly to make sure there
are no stones or dirt. Wash it in water and soak for 5-6 hours. Wash and
soak rice also separately for 5-6 hours. Drain both rice and urad and
grind coarsely with minimum water to a smooth batter. Cover the bowl and
place it at a warm place for it to ferment.
- When you see the batter rising (around 12 hours), it’s
fermented. Add salt and mix well. You may have to add a little water to
get the right consistency for making uttapams.
- Chop all the vegetables finely and keep aside.
- Heat a flat griddle. Oil it a little. When it’s very
hot, wipe off the oil with a paper towel.
- Drop a ladle full of batter on the griddle (see picture
below). Spread it a little to make a thick pancake. Top it with the
vegetables of your choice.
- Sprinkle a little oil on the top and on the sides.
Reduce the heat to medium. Once you see it browning a little, gently lift
the uttapam and flip it. Add a little more oil on the sides. Press it a
little so that it’s cooked evenly. Brown it lightly from both sides.
- The vegetables usually brown much more than the batter
but don’t worry, they still taste great.
- Serve it hot with coconut chutney and Sambhar.
