Wash the rice, dals and fenugreek thoroughly with water then soak for 8 hours and grind it to a fine paste.

Ferment the batter overnight. Next day add salt and some water if required to make a spreadable batter.

Heat a pan, turn the flame to low; lightly grease the pan for the first uttapam and spread a laddle full of the batter on the pan.
