Rawa Uttapam is one of those easy to make breakfast dishes that you can prepare quickly and yet have a delicious meal that will keep you energized throughout the morning. Strictly speaking, Uttapam is a South Indian dosa-like dish. Unlike the dosa, Rawa Uttapam is not made of fermented batter and has a thick pancake-like consistency. It requires much less effort to prepare and tastes as good as or ... even better than the regular Uttapam. As one of the simplest rawa recipes around, the ingredients are basic which can be found in every kitchen. The preparation time is about half an hour not including the chutneys or dips that go with it. Since it doesn’t involve an elaborate fermentation process, it is a perfect dish for days when you crave something comforting and satisfying but also nutritious. This uttapam’s versatility is what makes it a favorite. It can be served as the main course if you can spend a little extra time and come up with a chutney to go with it. This uttapam also goes perfectly with all kinds of dips, sauces and even sambar. You can also eat it without any dips if no-frills is your type of meal. The rava onion uttapam recipe is one of those Indian dishes which is a favorite at family get-togethers and with kids as an evening snack before they head off for their sports or music lessons. It only takes two or three good-sized rawa uttapams to make a satisfying meal.
