  • 22 April 2025

Ingredients

  • 1 cup FarMart Pantry's bajra flour

  • ½ cup finely chopped onions

  • ½ cup grated carrots

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh coriander leaves

  • 1 green chili, finely chopped (optional)

  • ½ teaspoon cumin seeds

  • Salt to taste

  • Water, as needed

  • Oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine bajra flour, chopped onions, grated carrots, coriander leaves, green chili (if using), cumin seeds, and salt.

  2. Gradually add water to the mixture to form a smooth, pourable batter with a consistency similar to pancake batter.

  3. Heat a non-stick skillet or tawa over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil.

  4. Pour a ladleful of the batter onto the skillet and spread it gently to form a pancake about 5-6 inches in diameter.

  5. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges lift easily and the bottom is golden brown. Flip the cheela and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes.

  6. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.

  7. Serve hot with chutney or yogurt.
