Besan | kadalai maavu | Gram flour 1 cup Onion 1 Tomato 1/2 Green chili 1 Turmeric powder 1/4 tsp Coriander leaves few Salt as needed Oil 1/2 tsp per cheela Bell pepper | capsicum 2 tblsp finely chopped (optional) Garam masala 1/2 tsp (optional)
Finely chop the onion, tomato, green chili and coriander leaves. In a bowl add the besan, onion, tomato, green chili, bell pepper, salt, turmeric powder and garam masala (if adding).
Ensure all the veggies are very finely chopped. Add water (approximately 3/4 cup) and mix it nicely without any lumps. You can sieve the flour also. Check for salt. Let the consistency of the batter be that of dosa batter.
Heat a pan and pour 1 big ladle of the besan batter on the pan. Gently spread the batter. Once it gets cooked on one side, flip the cheela. Add 1/2 tsp of oil and take out from the pan.
Repeat this for the rest of the batter. Serve with tomato ketchup. You can have this plain too.
