Uttapam
Ingredients :

- 25 gms Chana Dal
- 1 tsp cumin seeds
- 100gms Butter or Ghee
- 1 large finely chopped onion
- 2 - 3 large tomatoes, balnched and finely chopped
- Salt to taste
To be ground :
Wash the Urad Dal and Chana Dal in running water and then soak them in drinking water overnight. In the morning grind them in a electric grinder to make a semi - solid paste/batter. Keep this paste for one more day in a fully covered metal vessel for the yeast to form. Once the yeast is formed, it is used to make uttapams.
