Here’s yet another South Indian breakfast which we all love and keep having them. South Indian food is easily available at all eateries but I prefer eating from the food stall parked on the road side.They serve the exact taste and quantity.
Uttapam is my favourite and now my twins also love them.Best way to make kids have their veggies just looks like pizza if you grate some cheese on it.
Coming to the recipe,batter is same as the one used for idli or dosa.You can use store bought ones also.Here I had leftover batter from idli so made Uttapam
