PREPARATION

• Take the oats and powder it in the blender.
• Add it to a bowl along with semolina / suji and combine well with butter milk, salt and cumin seed. Make a thick dosa batter.
• As we mixed semolina, the water content we added will dries out quickly. So add water accordingly and the consistency must be thicker than normal dosa batter. It must not be a flowing consistency. It must be like idly batter consistency.
• Meanwhile prepare the mushroom roast. Marinate the chopped mushrooms ( 100 gm) with turmeric powder(half tsp), chili powder(1 tsp), coriander powder(1 tbsp) and salt. Heat oil in a wok and saute tomato(1 small) until mushy and then add the marinated mushroom to it. Cook until done . Do not add water.
• Heat a tawa / pan and brush with oil. Pour a laddle full of batter and spread it lightly.
• Immediately top it with chopped carrot, bell peppers and cooked mushroom. Drizzle some oil along the sides and top. Press slightly on the top with a wooden spoon or spatula.
• Cover it for 1 minute with a lid. Do not flip this uthappam. Cook on a medium low flame.
• It will be crispy and soft uthappam with yummy mushroom flavor.
• Serve hot with chutney or with a nice cup of tea.
