Heat a mini uttapa pan and grease it using a little oil.

Sprinkle 1 tbsp of each of the 7 toppings evenly on each of the 7 mini uttapas and press it gently so that the topping sticks well to the batter.
Cook the uttapas, using a little oil, till they turn golden brown in colour from both the sides.
Repeat steps 1 to 4 to make 13 more platters.
Serve immediately with coconut chutney, sambhar and malagapodi powder.
