Kaju Uttapam Recipe

Ingredients:

1. 2 cup rice (chawal)
2. 1 cup split black gram lentil (urad ki dhuli dal)
3. 2 onion (pyaj)
4. 2 tomato (tamatar)
5. 2 green chilly (hari mirch)
6. a piece ginger (adrak)
7. 1 tsp coriander leaves (dhania patti)
8. 15-16 cashew nut (kaju)
9. 1 tsp salt (namak)
10. oil for cooking


Method:

* Soak rice and dal separately for about 6 hours.
* Grind them separately.
* Mix them in a container and add salt.
* Then cover and leave for fermentation for 12 hours.
* Finely chop adrak, pyaj, hari mirch, tomato and dhania.
* Cut kaju also into pieces and mix lal mirch in chawal batter.
* Heat a non stick pan/tawa and spread 1 tbsp batter on it.
* Spread chopped vegetables and kaju on it.
* Cook at low flame and grease it on the corners and turn it to cook the other side.
* Serve it hot.

If the batter sticks on a tawa, add little salt to the oil and grease the corners so that uttapam will not stick on tawa. Cook it at low flame to make it tastier.
