Vegetable Uttapam [with black chickpeas] is quick, super easy and great for a protein rich meal/snack. In addition it is very healthy and tasty. Also you do not need a lot of ingredients to make it which is awesome!! 😛
Uttapam is a South Indian dish enjoyed in entire India and abroad. You will find various kinds of Uttapams like the one with vegetables, spicy ones, with meat and so on. I love it because it is so quick to make and you can basically put everything on it that is lying in your fridge and you want to finish up! 😉 But here I use onions, tomatoes, chillies, spinach for some greens and black chickpeas for lots of protein. For someone who is new to Uttapam, you may look at it as a savory pancake with vegetables. 😊
