Onion Tomato Uttapam

South India's thick, soft, savory pancakes: a tangy fermented rice and urad dal batter poured thicker than a dosa and topped with finely chopped onion, tomato, green chili, ginger, cilantro and curry leaves, pressed in and cooked slowly until the bottom is golden and crisp and the toppings caramelize. Serve hot with coconut chutney and sambar.
