Podi Onion uthappam …. Evenly browned on both sides with crisp edges, caramelized onions (shallots) peeping out of the ghee glistening surface is a food that I often look forward to. A generous sprinkle of dosa mulagai podi enhances its taste. A beautiful melange of flavours and textures, this dish leaves one yearning for more.
Commonly prepared in most south Indian households with fermented dosa batter, it can don several hats depending on its topping-cheese, vegetable, onion, corn … creativity is the key in dishing out uthappam varieties.
