Cabbage Uthappam (Savory pancake)

This is a simple variant of the south-Indian starter (well, I'm using the term a little loosely here....it is very filling by itself!). The cabbage adds a touch of crispiness (and health!) to the delicious pancake.


Ingredients (makes 6 to 8 uthappams):

thick Dosa batter - about 250 grams
grated cabbage - 150 grams
finely chopped green chillies - 2

oil for frying

Method:

Pour batter on a warm frying pan. Spread cabbage and chillies. Add a teaspoon of oil around the uttappam. Cook on low heat until golden brown. Flip and cook for a couple of minutes. Serve hot with chutney.
