1 cup chickpea flour
¼ cup semolina/rawa
2 tablespoon rice flour
1 tablespoon ginger paste
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 teaspoon ajwain or carom seeds
1 teaspoon turmeric powder
1 teaspoon coriander powder
1 teaspoon chilly powder
1 teaspoon cumin powder
1 cup tomato puree
1-2 tablespoon tomato ketchup
salt
½ teaspoon sugar
1.5 cups water or dairy-free milk/yogurt
1 teaspoon baking soda
⅓ cup cilantro finely chopped
3 green chillies minced
½ cup onion finely chopped
oil for making the omelet

Instructions

In a mixing bowl add chickpea flour, rice flour, and semolina.
Add carom seeds, ginger paste, and cumin seeds.
Then add turmeric powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, and chilly powder.
Add tomato puree, tomato ketchup, salt and sugar.
Add half cup water gradually to make a smooth and thick batter using a whisk. Let this batter rest for 5-10 minutes.
Add baking soda and a tablespoon of oil on top. Once it bubbles, mix the batter.
Add half cup water to get the right flowing consistency. The batter should be light and fluffy.
Mix chopped onions, minced green chillies, and cilantro in a small bowl.
Heat a pancake pan and pour a spoonful of batter over it. The pan should sizzle when you pour the batter. Spread the batter to cover the pan. Drizzle oil on all sides.
Generously sprinkle chopped onions, green chillies and cilantro mix on top. Press them lightly into the chilla. Do not flip to the other side in a rush. Keep the flame low to medium. Once the edges loosen up, flip and continue to cook. Cook each side evenly it for 2-3 minutes. Then take the pancake off the pan.
