Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Split Green Gram / Moong Dal
  • 1/2 Cup Split Black Gram/ Urad Dal
  • 1 Tsp Fenugreek /Methi Seeds
  • Toppings: 2 Tbsp Spring Onions (Finely Chopped)
  • 2 Tbsp Mint/ Pudina Leaves (Finely Chopped)
  • 2 Tbsp Coriander Leaves/ Dhania Patta (Finely chopped)
  • 1/2 Tbsp Green Chillies (Finely Chopped)
  • Salt as needed

Method of Preparation

Step – 1

Make batter by soaking the dals and fenugreek seeds for 6 hours. Grind to a fine thick batter and ferment it overnight, as usual. Mix all the ingredients for topping. Add salt and mix well. Keep aside.

Step – 2

Heat the tawa or griddle on medium high heat. Slightly grease the tawa with oil. Pour the batter and spread it quickly in a circular fashion and make it slightly thicker than the regular dosa.

Step – 3

Immediately sprinkle the prepared topping, and you can press it slightly using the spatula. Cover and cook.

Step – 4

Once the top-side gets cooked and the bottom is browned (golden brown), remove the uthappam from the tawa. You can serve this with chutney or sambhar or Milagai podi. Add Salad and Sprouts.
