Chickpea Pancake

This simple recipe is a firm favourite in our kitchen. We use it as the base for so many delicious savoury fillings.

Find Chickpea Flour at Dischem, Health Shops or your local Indian dealer (ask for Chana Flour).
Flax Meal can also be obtained from Dischem or Health Shops.

The standard recipe calls for turmeric, but OMIT TURMERIC if you want a more conventional colour, or if you want to add a different colour:

• BEETROOT pancakes – add beetroot juice of finely pureed cooked beetroot, instead of milk.
• SPINACH pancakes – add finely pureed blanched leaves to the mixture, instead of water.
  In both cases above bring the batter back to pancake consistency after adding additional ingredients.
