Ingredients

2 par boiled rice

1/2 glass yellow split pea

1/4 glass Red lentils

1/4 glass Broken black lentils

Asafoetida or hing- 1 tbl spoon

Curry leaves- 2 hand ful

Whole Red chillies- 10

Salt to taste

Directions

1. Soak all the lentils separately and the par boiled rice separately for at least 6hrs.

2. Grind the rice first and pour it in the batter bowl and then grind the lentils along with the spices. All the ingredients should be ground coarsely with salt.

3. Add water and grind. The batter should be thick.

4. Take a non-stick pan and warm it, and pour like a crepe. Add oil and wait till the side cooks well. You have to have a flat spoon to spread it like a crepe.

5. Once the side is cooked, turn it over.

6. If you want it crispier, you can add more oil and leave it for some for time.

NOTE:

1) You have to grind the rice in an blender, food processor won't do the job right.

2) If you grind the rice well, don't worry, you can put the lentil mix in a food processor and pulse really well and add water gradually.

3) You can have this along with Jaggery or Gur ( Unrefined Indian raw sugar, usually comes in a block) or brown sugar, plain sugar along w/ clarified butter .

You can also eat it with Sambar (thick lentil soup), recipes available on the web.

I know, it looks complicated, but I assure you, if you like spicy, this dish won't dissappoint you!

Hope you enjoy it. Happy cooking!
