Green Moong Cheela
A Crisp, Savoury Moong Pancake
A savoury pancake of whole green moong and besan, with 5 g of Power Sprinkle whisked into the batter.
Ingredients
- 20 g whole green moong, soaked 6–8 hours
- ½-inch ginger
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 green chilli
- 20 ml water for grinding
- 1 teaspoon each finely chopped onion and grated carrot
- 2 tablespoons besan
- 5 g Power Sprinkle
- 2 tablespoons water to adjust consistency
Method
- Drain the soaked moong and discard the soaking water. Grind it with the ginger, garlic, salt and green chilli, adding 20 ml of water, to a smooth paste.
- Take 30 g of this batter. Add the Power Sprinkle and 2 tablespoons of water and loosen it to a runny consistency.
- Stir in the chopped onion and grated carrot, then the besan. Add a little more water if needed to get the right consistency.
- Heat a pan, grease it lightly and pour in the batter, spreading it into a thin round.
- Cook for about 10 minutes, flipping occasionally, until both sides are golden and crisp.
