Instructions
- Soak the bread in cold water and drain excess water. Transfer the bread pieces into a blender along with rava, rice flour,maida and curd. Grind everything to a smooth batter. Add water accordingly to get dosa batter consistency
- Transfer to a bowl and Add chopped onions, shredded carrots, peas, corn, idli podi and little salt. Mix everything and add water if required and set aside for atleast 15 - 20 minutes
- Heat the skillet on medium heat and spread some oil on it. Pour ladle full of batter and spread it to make a small and thick bread uttapam or pancake. Flip it over and cook till bread uttapam or pancake becomes nice and crispy from both sides. Serve them with your favorite chutney or sauce.
Notes
2. Green chilli can be added instead of idli podi
3. If the uthappam is too soft to flip add extra rice flour
4. If you feel uttappam is too cripy add extra bread
5. Veggies can be sauted in oil and added to the batter
6. If you have leftover idli dosai batter it can be used. Skip rice flour in that case
7. Flip the uthappam after it is done one side otherwise it might lose it shape while flipping

Thanks for trying Harsha. Sorry that it didnt come properly. Guess rava is not enough. Try adding tbsp extra. Which bread you used Wheat/ Maida? Which flour you used all purpose/ rice flour. Did you grease the skillet with oil?
