Instructions
Clean, wash and soak the green gram with 6 cups of water for the soaking.
After about 3 hours the beans will have swollen and easy to grind.
Drain and use fresh water to grind.
Into the blender add the salt, chilli, cumin seeds and the soaked green gram.
Blend to a smooth paste.
Stir the batter well and it will have the consistency of a pancake/ dosa batter
Bring a flat pan to heat up and smear oil or ghee over the pan.
Pour one ladleful of the batter and spread out in even concentric circles, but not too thin on the pan
Once the flat side is golden flip over and cook the other side as well.
When both sides are cooked ( easy to remove from the pan) the crepe is ready.
