Waffle Uttapam – A savory waffle made with rice lentil batter and vegetables
Waffles Uttapam- are usually made with a flour mixture and are sweet in taste. But as I am not fond of those sweet waffles, my waffle maker was just lying in the store corner. Last week, I had some guests at my place and I was not in the mood to serve them the routine uttapam or idli so I tried making uttapam in the waffle maker and everyone loved them! They’re also low fat and look great.
I have added tomato, corn, capsicum, and carrots into the uttapam batter but you can add any vegetable of your choice in it. It is a very healthy snack for kids tiffin box as it taste good even after it becomes cold. You can easily recreate this dish with the Best Waffle Maker. You might even want to adapt the recipe to make it your own.
Most of the South Indian snacks and tiffins are healthy and low fat.Whether it is the most popular Masala dosa or the steamed Idli or the Kuzhi Paniyaram they taste great with just little fat and few spices and are quite easy to make.The accompaniment served along is Sambhar or different types of chutney like the most popular Coconut chutney and tomato peanut chutney
