A sumptuous variant of the common rice and dal uttapa, the Mini Jowar and Tomato Uttapa, as the name suggests is made with a batter of jowar and urad dal.

Jowar being alkaline in nature is good for your tummy, and interestingly this batter does not require fermentation, thus ruling our the possibility of Acidity too.

Not only are these mini uttapas convenient to make, they are also super tasty thanks to the tomatoes and peppy coriander.
