Uttappam is a traditional South Indian dish made from a fermented batter of rice and urad dal (split black gram). This thick, pancake-like delicacy is topped with a variety of ingredients such as onions, tomatoes, carrots, chilies, and coriander, offering both flavor and nutrition. Uttappam is rich in carbohydrates and plant-based protein, making it a filling meal or snack. The fermentation process enhances its digestibility and promotes gut health. Typically cooked with minimal oil on a flat skillet, it is a healthier alternative to fried foods. However, its calorie content can increase depending on the choice of toppings and serving accompaniments like chutneys or sambar. Packed with essential nutrients such as iron, vitamin C (from vegetable toppings), and fiber, Uttappam is a wholesome option within Indian cuisine. Moderation is key for maintaining a balanced diet, especially for individuals monitoring carbohydrate intake.
