Instructions
Preparation
Rinse the rice and lentils separately in cold water and soak them for 4-5 hours.
Drain the water and grind the rice and lentils separately to a smooth batter. Mix the two batters together and add water as needed to make a thick batter.
Add salt to the batter and mix well. Keep the batter aside to ferment overnight or for 8-10 hours.
Cooking Steps
Once the batter has fermented, heat a tawa or griddle over medium heat.
Grease the tawa with a little oil and pour a ladleful of batter onto it. Spread the batter to make a thick pancake.
Sprinkle chopped tomatoes, grated paneer over the pancake. Press it lightly into the batter.
Drizzle oil around the edges of the pancake and cook for 2-3 minutes or until the bottom is golden brown.
Flip the pancake over and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the other side is also golden brown.
Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve hot.
