Makes 1 crepe, about 4-5″ in diameter
¼ cup chickpea (besan) /rice/wheat flour
¼ tsp turmeric powder (haldi)
¼ tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
a pinch of red chilli powder/cayenne pepper (optional)
salt
fresh cilantro/coriander, finely chopped
water
oil or ghee (clarified butter)
Combine all the dry ingredients along with chopped cilantro in a bowl and whisk it into a smooth, silky batter by adding sufficient amount of water.
Dip a piece of kitchen paper in oil or ghee (clarified butter) and grease a small frying pan. Ladle a generous spoonful of batter into the pan. With a flick of the wrist swivel the pan in order to get a nice even covering all over the pan, about 1/8th inch thickness.
Cook on a medium-high heat and flip it over when you see the edge turning golden brown. Serve it with butter, ketchup, yogurt to your little one. (It’s great with chutney or pickle for adults)
*Add diced tomato, onion or chopped spinach, fenugreek leaves (methi) to the batter for variation.
