Topped with veggies of your choice, and paired with a coconut chutney or red chutney, Uthappa or Uttapa is a great way to get your kids to have a hearty meal. Step 1: Add water to the batter to make a pancake-batter-like consistency and add salt to taste. Heat a non-stick pan or cast iron pan on medium heat. Evenly spread a few drops of ghee or oil. Spread about 2 ladles full of batter (about ½ cup) to form a 6-inch pancake. You can make the pancake thick or thin. Carefully pick up the uttapam, going in from the sides and reaching the middle with a thin silicone spatula, and flip it over. Allow the top side to cook for 1 to 2 minutes as the onions start to caramelize. Take the uttapam out and serve with the topping side up with coconut chutney or cilantro mint chutney and sambar. Repeat with the remaining batter. Fill the batter in the reusable mustard or ketchup dispenser and make inch circles on the pan. Add the toppings and gently flip them with a small spoon or silicone spatula and a fork to help you get a grip on them. Press them gently and allow them to cook for a minute.
Make a big batch of the batter and store it in the refrigerator. The batter stays fresh for up to a week. Keep out on the day of making and bring the batter to room temperature for best results Another way to enjoy these savory pancakes on a weeknight is by actually cooking a batch of these goodies. Layer them with parchment paper in between and freeze To serve, thaw them at room temperature. Then reheat them on the stovetop in a non-stick pan, microwave them covered with a wet paper towel or a dish for 1 to 2 minutes, or reheat in a preheated oven at 400 degrees for 5 mins.
