Pesarattu

Pesarattu ingredients:

1. Moong dal – 1 cup
2. Green chillies – 3
3. Ginger – ½ inch piece
4. Salt – to taste
5. Onion – 1 (finely chopped)
6. Cumin seeds – 1 tsp
7. Oil – For sprinkle

Preparation:

Soak the moong dal over night. Then wash the dal. Then grind the dal along with green chillies, ginger and salt into a fine paste of medium consistancy.

Now remove the batter form the blender and transfer into vessel. Now add cumin seeds and mix the batter thoroughly.

Now heat the flat pan or tawa and spread with some oil. The pan must be hot for pesarattu to come out in good shape.

Now pour one laddle full of pesarattu batter in the centre of the pan and spread into circular motion.

Sprinkle 1 tsp of oil on the top and around the edges.

When the bottom colour changes to golden brown colour then reverse it and cook the otherside for few mins.

Now reverse it back and sprinkle finely chopped onions on the top and fold it half.

Remove from the pan and serve with ginger chutney.
