Onion tomato uthappam recipe, making onion tomato uthappam. Onion tomato uthappams recipe – popular south indian breakfast snack. they are healthy as well as easy to make. can also be packed as tiffin snacks for kids. i usually make uthappams with the leftover idli or dosa batter. speaking of uttapams, reminds me of my mom who always prefers uthappams over dosas. instead of regular dosas she likes to make uthappams for herself. since both can be from the same dosa batter, so you have the option to choose. personally, i like both uthappams and dosas. the main difference between uthappams and dosas is that uthappams are slightly thicker than dosas and sometimes if you don’t cook them well then the insides will be little uncooked. there are different varieties of uthappams like: onion tomato uthappams, onion uthappams, tomato uthappams, cheese uthappams, masala uthappams, mix veg uthappams, butter uthappams etc.

Idli fry recipe, how to make mumbai style idli fry. Idli fry recipe – a quick fried snack made with left over idlis. this idli fry recipe is the way i would have idli fries in the south indian restaurants in mumbai. the idli are cut into finger chips and then deep fried. later red chilli powder or chaat masala or pav bhaji masala or idli podi is sprinkled on top of it. you can choose any masala of your choice. at home, we prefer idli podi or pav bhaji masala or red chilli powder. to make this idli fry recipe, use only left over idlis or day old idlis which have been refrigerated. don’t use fresh idlis, because they break in the oil while frying and absorb a lot of oil also. they also stick to each other while frying. it is always better to refrigerate the idlis for a few hours before you fry them so that they don’t break in oil while frying. if you don’t want to deep fry then you can also pan fry or shallow fry the idlis. another way, i use left over idlis is by making idli chaat and idli upma.
