Today, almost everyone is familiar with the word "moringa." This South Indian delicacy, often known as "drumstick," has risen to the top of the list of superfoods in existence. Its advantages to health have received a lot of praise. Its leaves are the most nutrient-rich component of the tree, despite the fact that practically every part of the tree is used in different recipes or herbal treatments. Dried leaves are offered as a supplement in the form of a powder or capsule in western nations.
As an antiseptic, moringa powder can be used to clean polluted surfaces. It works well against a variety of bacteria and fungi, including those responsible for stomach cancer and ulcers. In addition, moringa powder is used to cure a variety of other illnesses, such as diabetes and hypertension as well as typhoid and malaria. Its wide range of chemicals are assumed to be behind its advantageous benefits. While hyperglycemia is a risk factor for heart disease, it is also an early indicator of diabetes. According to scientific evidence, moringa powder has the ability to treat both of these conditions.

Pour the uttapam batter over a hot nonstick pan. Add the chopped vegetables and a few drops of oil to the sides right away. Cook it starting from one side. To ensure that the vegetables steam properly, you can cover the pan. When it's finished, flip it over and continue cooking for 2 more minutes. Once more flipping it over, cover the veggie side with cheese. After a minute, off the flame and allow the steam to help the cheese melt. It's time for your uttapam!
