Ingredients
For the Batter
- 1 cup Semolina rava
- 1 cup Yogurt curd
- 1/4 tsp Baking Soda
- 1.5 tsp Salt or to taste
- 1 cup Water
Instructions
Prepare the Batter
- Firstly, in a bowl, combine semolina, yogurt, baking soda, and salt. Add water gradually while whisking continuously until a smooth, slightly thick batter forms. Avoid lumps.
- Let the batter rest for 15-20 minutes.
- Gently whisk the batter again before cooking.
Cook the Uttapam
- Heat a griddle or tawa over medium heat. Lightly brush with oil.
- Optionally, wipe the tawa with an onion slice to prevent sticking.
- Pour a ladleful of batter onto the hot griddle and spread it into a small, round pancake.
- Sprinkle the chopped onions, tomatoes, and green chilies (if using) evenly over the uttapam.
- Season with a pinch of salt.
- Drizzle a little oil around the edges and on top of the uttapam.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes on low heat until the bottom is golden brown and slightly crispy.
- Carefully flip the uttapam and cook for another minute on the other side.
- Cook for a few more seconds to ensure it's cooked through.
- Remove the uttapam from the griddle and serve hot with your favorite chutney.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Rava Masala Uttapam
- For extra fluffy uttapams, let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes.
- Adjust the amount of green chilies according to your spice preference. Omit them entirely for kids.
- Experiment with other toppings like grated coconut, cilantro, or finely chopped vegetables.
- If the batter seems too thick, add a little more water to achieve a pourable consistency. If it's too thin, add a little more semolina.
