Ingredients

1 cup chickpea flour
1/2 cup water or as required
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/4 teaspoon chili or 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepepr
1/4 teaspoon carom seeds
1/2 cup red onion chopped
2 tablespoons cilantro chopped
1/2 small tomato finely chopped
1-2 tablespoons avocado oil

Instructions

In a bowl, combine the chickpea flour and 1/2 - 3/4 cup water to make a thin lump-free batter.
Add the salt, turmeric, red chili powder, carom seeds, onion, and cilantro, and mix well. Let the batter sit for 5 minutes.
Heat a skillet over medium heat. When the skillet is hot, drizzle a few drops of oil on the skillet. Spread the oil using a paper towel.
Pour a ladle full (1/4 to 1/3 cup) of the batter onto the skillet. Spread the batter by moving the skillet to make a pancake.
Drizzle a few drops of oil on the edges of the pancake. Cook until the edges start to leave the pan and the bottom is golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes.
Flip the pancakes and cook for 2 to 4 minutes.
Continue to make the rest of the pancakes. Serve hot with tomato sauce or green chutneys.
