Method
Make the batter for Uttapam as mentioned in the recipe for Crispy Butter Sada Dosa. Add water with care as the mixture has to be thicker than the dosa batter.
Heat a tava and spread oil on it. Add a spoon of the batter and spread it as thick as a pancake. Spread onions, tomatoes, chili and cilantro on it and lightly press down. Add little oil on the top. Cover and cook on medium flame. Once crisp, turn it over and cook the other side. Spread a spoon of butter and serve hot with Cilantro Coconut Chutney and Sambar.
