Bread Uttapam
Uttapam is a popular South Indian dish. Traditionally uttapam is made with rice and lentil batter, which can be a long process. Bread Uttapam, on the other hand, is instant and easy to make. Not to mention it tastes delicious. Uttapam is a thick dosa, or pancake, with vegetables cooked over skillet. It tastes divine served hot and with a side of coconut chutney.
- 3 slice white bread
- 3 tbsp sooji coarse (samolina)
- 3 tbsp all-purpose flour (maida, plain flour)
- 1/4 cup yogurt (curd, dahai)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
- 1/4 cup bell pepper, finely chopped (capsicum )
- 1/4 cup tomatoes finely chopped (remove the seeds)
- 1 green chili finely chopped
- 2 tsp ginger shredded (adrak)
- 2 tbsp cilantro finely chopped (hara dhania)
- 2 tbsp oil to cook
Remove the crest from bread and cut them in small pieces.
In a blender add bread, sooji, all-purpose flour, salt, yogurt, and water, and blend to a thick and smooth paste.
- Take out the batter in a bowl and add the remaining ingredients, cumin seeds, bell pepper, tomatoes, ginger, green chili, and cilantro, mix it well. Batter should be thick in consistency add more water if needed, batter should not be too thick but should not be runny.
- Heat the skillet over medium heat and lightly grease the skillet. Pour about 2 tablespoons of batter and spread consistency should be of thick pancake.
- Pour little oil around uttapam. Let it cook for about 2 minutes and turn them over, bread uttapam should be golden brown from both sides and this should take about four minutes. Notes: do not cook on high heat, uttapam will not cook through.
Serve bread uttapam with your choice of chutney, I like to serve with coconut chutney or green cilantro chutney.

April 22, 2018 at 12:00 pmExcellent and easy, really delicious. I used some wheat bread that had gone stale, turned out great. I added some mustard seeds and chopped onion to the batter. Thanks again, Manjulaji!

Sooji coarse (semolina)
Bell pepper

Sandhya
June 25, 2016 at 7:03 pmSooji coarse is nothing but sooji used for halwa. Bell pepper is capsicum. Cilantro is coriander leaves (Dhandia patha)
Shruti
November 4, 2016 at 6:51 amSoooji is semolina
Bell pepper is capsicum or shim last mirth
CILANTRO is dhaniya or coriander

April 5, 2016 at 10:42 pmHi Manjula I love your recipes. I did a variant of this uthappam by cutting wheat bread slices into 4 pieces and dipping them in slightly sour idli batter which was seasoned with vegs as you mentioned. This was also very tasty and we can avoid using maida
Manjula Jain
April 5, 2016 at 10:51 pmNithya, Thank you for sharing, it is always more fun to make the changes to your taste.

Neesha Desai
September 13, 2015 at 5:01 amthis is very easy recipe and quick to make but we should keep in mind that lentil batter is much more healthier than bread and all purpose flour batter…once in a while it is ok but not to replace this with our authentic dosa batter..
hope

March 3, 2015 at 8:53 pmNavpreet Kaur, thank you, yogurt should be 1/4 cup. I fixed the mistake.
AV
March 2, 2015 at 11:03 pmThe name of the dish is “Uthappa” and not “uthappam”. Atleast that is what we have called it since childhood.
Padma Rani
March 3, 2015 at 2:20 amUtthapa is in Kannada and Uthappam is in Telugu.

Renu
March 1, 2015 at 5:04 amUse soya milk with juice of one lime to get the taste of non dairy yoghurt. I do it all the time.
priyanka
February 28, 2015 at 2:47 pmWas it medium sooji used? Since there are many types of sooji can you please tell which exact sooji was used in this recipe.
Thank you

Sandra
February 25, 2015 at 4:38 amI couldn’t make them exactly according to your recipe, as I didn’t have all the ingredients. BUT they were still amazing – the vegetables and spices worked so well. I used finely shredded, salted and squeezed zucchini instead of capsicum. Thanks so much for sharing this.
