Veg Uttapam – Thick, Flavorful South Indian Pancake

Veg Uttapam is a soft, thick, and savory South Indian pancake made from fermented rice and urad dal batter, topped generously with colorful vegetables and spices. Unlike dosa, which is thin and crisp, uttapam is soft and slightly spongy, making it a hearty and wholesome meal.

To prepare veg uttapam, the batter is poured thick onto a hot tawa (griddle), and finely chopped onions, tomatoes, green chilies, coriander, and capsicum are sprinkled on top. The uttapam is cooked on both sides until golden brown, allowing the vegetables to slightly caramelize and infuse the dish with flavor.

Veg uttapam is best served hot with coconut chutney, tomato chutney, and sambar. It’s perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even a light dinner. Nutrient-rich and filling, it’s a tasty way to enjoy a variety of vegetables in one dish.
