Let’s have a look at the recipe –
Preparation Time – 25 minutes
Equipments Used – Pan, Spatula, Aluminium foil, spatula/rolling pin, Knife
Serves – 4
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup Gram Flour/chickpea flour
- 2 Tablespoons plain Greek yogurt + 1/2 cup water
- or 4 Tablespoons plain soy milk yogurt or other non dairy yogurt + 1/3 cup water
- a generous pinch of Asafoetida(hing){Optional but recommended}
- 1/4 teaspoon ginger powder
- 1/4 teaspoon chili/cayenne powder
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1/3 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon virgin coconut oil
For Tempering:
- 2 teaspoons virgin coconut oil
- 1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds
- 1 tsp. curry leaves(Fresh or dried)
- 1 Tablespoon shredded coconut(optional)
- 1 Tablespoon Coriander leaves finely chopped
Recipe
- Mix all the batter ingredients, except oil to make a lump free batter. Blend it using a hand blender or a regular blender if needed.
- Heat a teaspoon of oil in a medium pan, Add the batter and cook on low heat.
- Stir continuously and evenly to avoid lumps. Cook till the mixture does not taste raw and thickens to slight gel like consistency. (4-6 minutes depending on the pan)
- Drop the mixture immediately on aluminium foil and spread as thin as possible with a spatula. I prefer to use a generously greased rolling pin. After it has completely cooled( 10 minutes), cut into 1.5 -2 inch wide strips.
- Oil your hands, lift one side carefully and Roll each strip into rolls. Place each roll on a serving plate.
Tempering:
- Heat oil in a small pan. Add mustard seeds, and allow them to start popping.
- Pour over rolls. Garnish with shredded coconut, chopped corriander and lemon juice. Serve.
