Method

  1. Mix all the masalas/spices and gram/besan flour well.
  2. Add water to make it a dosa-like batter.
  3. Take a non-stick tawa and put it on medium flame.
  4. Take a medium serving spoon full of batter and spread it on tawa in a round shape. Try to make it thin to medium thickness (while spreading the batter one should be careful that tawa should not be extremely hot otherwise the batter will not spread properly).
  5. Spread oil on the periphery of the pancake as well as on the top of it.
  6. Let it cook till it becomes pink to light brown on one side and then make it upside down.
  7. Cook the same way on the other side also and your besan pancake is ready.
