Uttapam waffles loaded with Sambhar flavoured veggies and coconut chutney.
So I had uttapam batter aaaand I had my waffle iron out sooo this happened! It was actually a great way to cook up the batter, edges are crispy and the inside is smooth and fluffy.
The flavour of the veggies is actually the star of the show. So even if you make your uttapam the traditional way, give the vegetable topping a make over with a dose of sambhar masala.
Oh and of course don’t miss out the coconut chutney.
