- 3/4 cup water and 1/4th cup extra if needed to adjust the consistency of batter. It should be cake batter consistency.
- 1/4 tsp fruit salt eno
- salt to taste
- oil needed to cook the chilla (around 1 tsp for each chilla)
Instructions
- Take chick pea flour, rice flour, sorghum flour, semolina in a mixing bowl.
- Add spices – carom seeds, turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander cumin powder, asafoetida, salt.
- Mix well with a spoon or hand whisk.
- Now gradually add water and stir everything well with spoon or hand whisk making sure that there are no lumps.
- Add all the water and mix well to make a lump free batter. (The batter should have the consistency like cake batter).
- Add chopped capsicum, onion, tomato, coriander.
- Mix well.
- Now keep the pan to heat on medium heat. Apply oil over it once the pan is heated.
- Now add the eno to the batter. Pour a tsp of batter over eno to activate it. The bubbles will rise as soon as water is added to eno.
- Mix everything well. The batter will become light and frothy.
- Take a laddle full of batter and pour on the heated greased pan. I had made chilla on 20 cm diameter pan.
- Bubbles will start to form after half minute. Spread oil on the sides and in the bubbles.
- With the help of spatula flip the chilla after a minute. Let it cook on another side for couple of minutes. (To make chilla crispier spread some more oil on the edges of the chilla at this stage).
- Flip again and cook for a minute more flipping in between.
- Remove the mix flour chilla / pancake in the serving plate and serve it with chutney or ketchup. Similarly make remaining chilla.
- I had served mix flour chilla / pancake with ketchup and lemongrass mint ginger chai for breakfast. You can also serve chila as hot after noon snack or after school snack to kids.
