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

  1. Drain the soaked moong and discard the soaking water. Grind with ginger, garlic, salt and green chilli, adding 20 ml water, to a smooth paste.
  2. Take 30 g of the batter. Add the Power Sprinkle and 2 tablespoons water to loosen to a runny consistency.
  3. Stir in the chopped onion and grated carrot, then the besan. Adjust consistency with a little more water.
  4. Heat a pan, oil lightly, and pour the batter, spreading into a thin round.
  5. Cook about 10 minutes, flipping occasionally, until both sides are golden and crisp.
