Besan Ka Chilla

Besan ka Chilla ia a great tea time recipe that could be cooked within no time. It takes hardly 5-8 minutes for preparation.

Ingredients
  • 2cups of Gram Flour/Chick Pea flour (Besan)
  • 1-2 green chilli finely chopped
  • 1 Onion finely chopped
  • 1 Tomato finely chopped
  • 1/4 tsp Red chilli powder
  • 1/4 tsp Cumin seeds
  • 1/4 cup Coriander leaves
  • Salt to taste
  • Oil to cook

Method
  1. Take a bowl and mix gram flour, salt, red chilli powder, cumin seeds, onions, tomato's and coriander leaves. Now add water slowly and gradually to prepare a fine and consistent batter.
  2. Batter should not be thick neither too watery. Like you do for Moong Dal Chilla's the same consistency is required for besan chilla's.
  3. Now heat up the pan and grease it up with the oil. Pour the batter on the pan and spread it out nicely in circle uniformly.
  4. Use oil to cook chilla as you do for dosa.
  5. Cook chilla from both side till it becomes golden brown in color.
  6. Serve hot chilla's with green chutney and tomato ketchup.
