## Ingredients List
– 1 cup of uthappam batter (fermented rice and lentil mix)
– 1/4 cup chopped onions
– 1/4 cup chopped tomatoes
– 1/4 cup chopped bell peppers (green, red, yellow)
– 1/4 cup grated carrots
– 1/4 cup green peas (fresh or frozen)
– 2 green chilies, finely chopped (adjust for spice)
– 1 tablespoon chopped fresh coriander leaves
– Salt to taste
– Oil for cooking

## Instructions/Steps
1. **Prep the Vegetables**: In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped onions, tomatoes, bell peppers, grated carrots, green peas, green chilies, and coriander leaves. Mix well and set aside.

2. **Heat the Pan**: Heat a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add a teaspoon of oil and spread it evenly.

3. **Pour the Batter**: Once the pan is hot, pour a ladleful of uthappam batter onto the center of the pan, spreading it lightly into a thick, round pancake shape.

4. **Top with Vegetables**: Sprinkle the prepared vegetable mixture evenly over the surface of the uthappam. Press them down gently to ensure they adhere to the batter.

5. **Cook the Uthappam**: Drizzle a little oil around the edges and cover the pan with a lid. Cook for approximately 3-4 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown.

6. **Flip and Cook**: Carefully flip the uthappam using a spatula and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes until it is cooked through and slightly crispy.

7. **Serve**: Remove the uthappam from the pan and serve hot with coconut chutney and sambar for a delicious Indian experience!
