ABOUT Amla Masala Uthappam/Amla Masala South Indian Pancake RECIPE

This can be made very quickly if you have dosa batter ready in hand and it is such a flavourful and healthy uthappam. It can be served as breakfast/dinner. I have adapted this recipe from a Tamil cookbook written by Chef Jacob and altered it a little. This is a great way of adding Vitamin C rich amla in your dish

Instructions

For the preparation of Amla Masala:
Deseed the amla and roughly chop it.
Boil the amla till well cooked or cook it in pressure cooker with around 1/4 cup of water for two whistles.
Mash the amla well. If there is a little excess water no worries as we will saute in next step.
Chop the shallots roughly and finely chop the green chillies.
Heat a pan with the two teaspoon oil.
Add in the chopped shallots and saute for a minute.
Now add the finely chopped green chillies and saute for 30 seconds.
Add the turmeric powder, curry masala powder and coriander powder and mix well.
Add the mashed amla and mix.
Add salt as per need. You need to adjust if your dosa batter already has salt in it.
Saute well for two minutes.
Now the mixture will start leaving the sides of the pan.
Add chopped coriander leaves and give it a mix and switch off the stove.
For making the uthappam:
Mix the prepared masala in the dosa batter.
Heat the dosa pan.
Add a ladle full of the batter to the pan. Do not spread too much just a little.
Drizzle oil at the sides of the uthappam.
Flip it over a while to cook it on the other side too.
Repeat the same for the rest of the batter too.
You can have it hot with chutney of your choice!.
