We all love South Indian Breakfast recipes, there are multiple options available starting from Idli, Dosa, Sambhar Vada, Panniyaram and the list goes on and on. Today in this post I'm going to share one more very common breakfast recipe and i.e. Uttapam.
One thing I love about South Indian cuisine is that it's very healthy and uses minimal oil. You can feed these dishes to babies, aged persons and even to the people on diet. I have already shared some of the delicacies from South Indian Breakfast recipes like
Uttapams are South Indian breakfast recipe made with rice, lentil and topped with veggies. These are generally served with coconut chutney and sambhar. Generally, Uttapams are prepared from the leftover Dosa batter and toppings are added to balance the sourness of the batter. Personally, I like to make my Uttapams very colorful so I try to add different veggies which make the Uttapam not only colorful but gives it a nice texture too.
The traditional approach of making Uttapams is very tedious and time-consuming too. So, here I'm sharing a quick and instant recipe of Poha Uttapam. Apart from using Poha or flattened rice, we will also require Suji or Semolina and Curd/Yogurt. You can top the Uttapam with any veggies of your choice. Here I have used onion, capsicum, carrot and coriander leaves.
So, without any further ado let's begin with the recipe:
Ingredients:
1. Poha/ Flattened Rice: 3/4 cup
2. Suji/Rava/Semolina: 3/4 cup
3. Curd/ Yogurt: 3/4 cup
4. Grated Carrot: 1/4 cup
5. Chopped Capsicum: 1/4 cup
6. Chopped Onion: 1/4 cup
7. Chopped Coriander Leaves: 1/4 cup
8. Red Chilli Powder: 1/4 cup
9. Salt: to taste
10. Oil: for cooking
11. Water: 3/4 cup
Method:
1. First of all, take a bowl and add Poha in it. Soak the poha in water for 5-6 minutes and then wash it properly and drain the excess water.
2. Take a grinder and add the soaked poha in it and blend it into a smooth paste. Add water if required.
3. Take out the Poha paste in a bowl. Add suji or rawa, curd, salt, and red chili powder. Add water and blend it into a smooth mixture.
5. In another bowl add the grated carrot, finely chopped capsicum, finely chopped onion, and finely chopped coriander leaves. Add salt to taste and mix everything well.
6. Heat a pan on medium-high heat and add a tsp of oil. Rub the oil in the pan with the help of a tissue paper.
7. Pour a ladle fun of Uttapam batter and spread it slightly. Cover the lid and let it cook for a minute.
8. Once done uncover the lid and spread a generous amount of the prepared veggie mixture. Press it gently so that it sticks to our uttapam.
9. Drizzle a little bit of oil on the sides of the uttapam. Once the uttapam is cooked from one side flip it and let it cook from the other side too.
10. Serve the Poha Uttapam with some tomato ketchup or coconut chutney. Enjoy!!
