Here’s a simple and tasty Tomato Uthappam recipe:
Ingredients (for 2–3 uthappams)
-
1 cup idli/dosa batter (ready-made)
-
1–2 medium tomatoes, finely chopped
-
1 small onion, finely chopped (optional)
-
1–2 green chilies, finely chopped (optional)
-
Fresh coriander leaves, chopped
-
Salt to taste (if batter is unsalted)
-
Oil or ghee for cooking
Instructions
-
Prepare the topping:
-
Mix chopped tomatoes, onion, green chilies, and coriander leaves in a small bowl.
-
-
Heat the pan:
-
Warm a non-stick tawa or skillet over medium heat. Grease lightly with oil.
-
-
Cook the uthappam:
-
Pour a ladle of batter onto the tawa and spread into a thick circle (not too thin).
-
Evenly sprinkle the tomato mixture on top.
-
Drizzle a little oil or ghee around the edges.
-
Cover and cook for 3–4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown.
-
Flip carefully and cook the other side for 2–3 minutes.
-
-
Serve hot:
-
Best served with coconut chutney and sambar.
-
Tips:
-
For extra flavor, sprinkle a pinch of black pepper or chili powder on top of the tomatoes.
-
Add grated cheese for a fusion version.
-
Thick batter works best; thin batter makes the uthappam floppy.
