Oothappam – Uttapam Recipe

Oothappam or Uttapam or Uthappa, literally means ‘poured appam’ in Tamil. This is a dosa-like dish prepared by cooking ingredients in a batter. Unlike dosa, which is crisp and crepe-like, uttapam is a thick pancake, with toppings cooked right into the batter. It is a south Indian dish made with rice and urud dal.

This is traditionally made with toppings such as tomatoes, onion, chillies, capsicum and cabbage mix; other common choices are coconut or mixed vegetables. It is often eaten with sambar or chutney.
