tricolor uttapam is a variation of the popular Indian breakfast dish uttapam. It is made with a vegetable filling that is divided into three parts and colored with different natural ingredients to create the Indian tricolor flag. The most common colors used are green (from capsicum or spinach), orange (from carrots), and white (from coconut). In this recipe we have used sweet corn instead of coconut.
tiranga uttapam is a South Indian dish made with a dosa batter as the base.
The base of the tricolour uttapam is a tomato onion mixture where onions are cooked in oil till translucent. Add the tomatoes, green chillies, chaat masala and salt and cook on medium heat for 2 minutes. Keep aside.
To make tricolour uttapam put the corn, capsicum and carrot in 3 small bowls. Add 1 teaspoon of lemon juice and salt in each bowl. Mix well and keep aside. Heat and grease a non-stick tava on a medium flame. Put 1 ladle of the batter on it. Spread 2 tablespoons of the onion-tomato mixture in it. Press down with a spatula and cook for 30 seconds on medium heat. Spread the corn, capsicum and carrot mixture on top of this mixture in such a way that you get three different coloured portions on your uttapam. Press down with a spatula and cook on medium heat for 30 seconds to 1 minute till the bottom of uttapam is brown. Serve tricolour uttapam hot with coconut chutney.
