Onion Podi Uthappam / Podi Uthappam


For the day 2 of final week in Cooking Carnival is onion,podi uthappam.Uthappam is a thick pancake like dosa can be made plain or with toppings.When it comes to toppings so many variations are made.
Onion uthappam is a popular one and everybody likes it and every household has their own version.

Coming to the recipe,I have adapted this recipe in a cookery show and its quite popular in a particular shop in Chennai.Its a onion uthappam sprinkled with a spicy garlic podi/powder and cooked using generous amount of ghee.This uthappam is served along with mint chutney and onion coriander chutney.

The exact recipe for the podi/powder was not given but I tried my own version and used it.
The podi came out so flavorful and when its sprinkled along with onion,it makes the uthappam so tasty.

Sweet Adai /Inippu Adai

Today is the final day for the Cooking Carnival in mega Blogging Marathon edition ans I like to end the series with a sweet note. Coming to the recipe its a sweet adai which is often made in our households for quick neivedhyam for offering to god..So many variations can be made using wheat flour,maida,ragi flour and sometimes with semolina. Today's version I used both wheat and all purpose flour along with rice flour.Since sweetener is used to make the batter this adai needs to be cooked in a medium flame,otherwise the color will turn dark.Here I used jaggery,even palm sugar and brown sugar can also be used.                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Sweet Adai/Inippu Adai                                                                         Basic Information    Pre
