Another oats recipe from my kitchen. While I have been constantly raving about how to incorporate oats in one's breakfast, I do not like the almost insipid oats porridge (what even flavor it may be) on an everyday basis. So I try and add to the regular breakfast items like dosa, upma, pongal or even khichdi. The latest victim of my experimentation has been the 'Uttapam'.
I have given it another twist my topping it with cherry tomatoes, cheese and some Italian seasoning. Read on for the recipe:
Preparation Time - 10 mins
Ingredients - 1 cup regular uttapam batter, 1 cup quick cooking oats, 1 medium sized onion, 6-8 cherry tomatoes, 6-8 pear tomatoes, grated cheese, chilli flakes, mixed herbs seasoning, 3 tsp oil, salt to taste.
Preparation - Mix the oats into the regular batter and keep aside for 5-6 mins.
Chop the onions into small pieces. Cut the tomatoes into two.
Cooking - Heat a non-stick frying pan. Season with a few drops of oil ( or use an oil spray instead ).
Pour 1/3 of the batter onto the pan and do not spread it too much. ( The batter does spread on its own. But if you think that its too thick, just spread it a bit more. )
Put the onions and tomatoes over it. Sprinkle chilli flakes, seasoning and a little bit of salt. Layer on the grated cheese.
Cover with a lid and let it cook through.
Flip over and cook on the other side for 1 minute. Remove from pan.
Serve hot with coconut chutney / ketchup.
