Tips

- You can add any vegetable of your choices like cabbage or Green beans, in which case frying the veggies before using it for uthappam will reduce the raw smell.
- Beetroot gives sweetness to the dish, so if you are making it for adults, you can add more pepper to spice up the taste.
- Add cheese before adding the veggies. This is because while tossing the uthappam, cheese may get burnt if it is on the top layer.
- Adults will also love this mini uthappam when you bring in variety. Like, idly podi uthappam, small onion(shallots) uthappam, egg uthappam etc., It is all your innovation that brings out delicious dishes.
