About Oothapam

Oothapam is a traditional South Indian dish hailed from the Indian subcontinent, often referred to as a savory pancake. Made from a fermented batter of rice and urad dal (split black gram), it boasts a slightly tangy flavor and soft, fluffy texture. Commonly topped with nutrient-rich ingredients like chopped onions, tomatoes, carrots, green chilies, and fresh herbs, Oothapam is both flavorful and versatile. Fermentation enhances its digestibility and supports gut health, while vegetables add essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Typically cooked with minimal oil on a skillet, it is relatively low in fats. However, the inclusion of refined grains may make it less suitable for those seeking whole grain options or managing blood sugar. A wholesome breakfast or snack, Oothapam is a nutritious choice when paired with chutneys or sambar for added protein and micronutrients.
