It is indeed the food which usually has a fried egg at the base. I have only ever seen it spelt as 'hoppers'.

Thanks Matthew! I should have known - I ate it, I think. But I thought it spells 'hoppus', no?
Is it the kind of food that usually puts an egg in it?

I live in Sri Lanka and 'hoppers' are a popular food here. I'm sure it refers to this. Hoppers are a circular pancake-like food which is made in the shape of an upside down dome, just like the shape of the frying pan in which they are made. They are sold in street-side shops called 'hopper bars'.
