The other day my kids were really hungry, and I was tired from a whole day's work of spring cleaning, so I whipped up this Dhirda. [A typical maharashtrian specialty, just like a dosa or pancake]. Its a very quick and filling snack. It can be eaten for breakfast too!
Just mix together 1&1/2 cups wheat flour, 1/2 cup besan, about 2-3 cups water (consistency should be medium like pancake/dosa batter - so adjust water accordingly), 2 tsp chopped garlic, 1 cup chopped methi leaves, 1/4 cup chopped onion (optional), 1 tsp jeera, 1 tsp turmeric powder, 1 tsp red chilli powder and salt to taste. Keep the batter aside for 10 mins. Heat a pan/tava - ideally a non-stick. Put oil on it and coat the pan. Pour a ladle full of batter on it and spread it in a circle. Cover and cook for 2-3 mins. Then turn over and cook the other side. Make it as crisp/soft as you like.
It can be enjoyed with a variety of condiments like ketchup/yoghurt/pickle/chutney!
