Ingredients needed
Oats -1/2 cup
Rava -1/2 cup (any rava)
Curd -1 cup
Cumin seeds/jeera – 1/2 tsp (optional)
Oil for making uthappams (sesame seed oil preferable)
Onion -1 medium size
Green chilli -1
Carrot grated -2-3 tbsp
Cabbage grated – 2 -3 tbsp
Coriander leaves finely chopped
Salt to taste
Preparation
Powder oats finely.
Finely chop onions and green chilli. (Omit green chillies for kids)
Method
In a bowl, mix together powdered oats, rava, curd, cumin seeds and salt needed. Keep it aside for half an hour.
After half an hour– add finely chopped onions, green chilli, grated carrot, cabbage, coriander leaves and mix well.
Add enough water to get an adai batter consistency.(approximately little less or little more than 1/2 cup of water) See the picture of the batter above to get an idea.
Heat a non stick tawa, when it is hot enough, pour a ladle of batter and spread a little. The uttapam should be thick like regular uttapams. Now reduce the flame to medium.
Drizzle a tsp of oil around the dosa and close it with a lid if needed but not necessary.
Once it starts lifting around the corners, flip the uthappam to the other side and drizzle just 1/4 tsp of oil.
Once it is cooked, remove from the tawa and serve hot with chutney. Repeat the same process for the rest of the batter.
Note – Oats Uttapam is very flimsy, so handle it gently while flipping over to the other side.
