    Good recipe. Only one suggestion. Instead of mixing the onions and other veggies in the batter, I suggest sprinkle the veggies on the batter as soon as the batter is spread on the tawa and slightly press down so that the onions are just embedded on the surface of the batter. When the uthappam is flipped over, the onions get fried to golden brown and yields yummy, hotel-like results.
