What to cook for breakfast is really a daily puzzle in most homes. The Semiya Uthappam is a wonderful option for such times. It needs just 30 minutes of resting time for the batter. And it is so simple!!!
Usually the preparation for Dosa batter starts a day earlier. Instant Dosa is possible but it is not so satisfying as it does not come out as soft as one likes. It becomes harder when it gets cold. The Semiya Uthappam remains soft and tasty even after it gets cold.
Just look at the Tips once before you start trying out the recipe.
Tips
Curd:
• Sour curds are ideal for making the Semiya Uthappam. If sour curds are not available, you may use any curds.
Easy Tip to remember the measurements:
• Just remember that at any time the measures of Semiya, Sooji and Curds should be equal.
Important Tip about Onions:
• You must definitely fry the onion beforehand. If you put raw onion in the batter, the onion does not cook properly. The cooking times of the Semiya and Sooji are different from that of the cooking time of onion. The onion will remain uncooked and this will not suit many people, as they cannot digest raw onions. So it is better to fry the onion at least for a minute before adding it to the batter. This will enhance the taste of the Uthappam , and also make it easily digestible.
One more Tip:
• If you like, you may add finely chopped Carrot and Capsicum.
