Besan Khandvi

Besan Khandvi

For Batter

  • First prep up all the ingredients required. Take the yogurt in a bowl. You can use dairy or vegan yogurt.
  • Add water and stir well
  • Add 1 teaspoon ginger-green chili paste, ¼ teaspoon turmeric powder, 1 pinch asafoetida (hing) and ⅔ teaspoon salt or add as required.
  • Add 1 cup gram flour aka besan.
  • With a wired whisk, keep on stirring and mixing till all the lumps are dissolved and you get a smooth batter.
  • Pour this batter in a saucepan or a broad frying pan. Switch on the stovetop and keep the heat to the lowest. Begin to stir.
  • Spread oil on plates or boards or tray. Large steel lids or thalis work very well. You can also use the back of a large baking tray. I had to use 4 steel lids.
  • Also mix 2 tablespoons of chopped coriander leaves and 2 tablespoons fresh grated coconut. Keep aside.
  • Stir the Battter untill get thicken
  • Quickly pour about ½ to ⅔ cup of batter on a large plate and spread thinly and evenly with a spatula.
  • Allow to cool and then sprinkle the coconut + coriander leaves mixture sparingly. You can also skip this stuffing part and directly garnish with the coconut and coriander once you temper the khandvi rolls.
