Ingredients for making 2 pancakes

  • Sprouted Moong raw- 1 cup
  • Oats flour – 1 Tbsp
  • Ginger- ¼ inch pc
  • Garlic – 3 pods (optional)
  • Green chilli- 1 – 2
  • Water to adjust consistency
  • Salt- as per taste
  • Toppings (optional and by choice)
    • Grated zucchini- 2 tbsp
    • Grated Carrot- 2 Tbsp
    • Grated Beetroot- 2 Tbsp

Method

  • Blend the ingredients for pancakes in a blender until grainy texture, not very smooth. Adjust taste for salt and spiciness. Consistency should be pourable from ladle like uttapa.
  • Heat a non-stick pan, brush with little oil and drop 2 ladles spread evenly, immediately top with grated veggies and cover it with a lid.
  • Once done, the pancake will separate from pan, flip it over if you want ( you may skip flipping as veggies get cooked in steam).
  • Serve hot with chutney / curd.

Tips

  • Can vary the grated vegetables as per choice.
  • Add 2-3 leaves of spinach in batter while grinding.
  • Top with grated paneer/ cottage cheese to increase the protein content.
