Besan Chilla, a protein rich nutritious pancake made from the gram flour(besan) is a popular snack from North Indian cuisine. This chilla is the perfect breakfast food for busy mornings and for kids’ lunchbox as it is not only healthy but also stomach filling and only requires 10-15 minutes. First, the batter is prepared by mixing the besan, tomato, onion, green chilli, coriander leaves and Indian spices with water and then round shaped pancakes made from that are shallow fried on tawa until crispy and light golden brown. It tastes delicious when served with tomato ketchup or green coriander chutney and a cup of tea in the afternoon or dinner.
