AaTey ka pooDaa (Pancakes made of wheat-flour)


When I was younger, everytime it rained we had two types of poodas as a sort of snack and we called the combo monsoon special.  It’s a quick and healthy meal when you don’t have a lot of time or no veggies at home.
Ingredients:
1 cup             Wheat flour

1 Tsp              Ajwain (bishop’s weed)
Salt
Red chilli powder
1 small          Onion/ shallot (finely cut)
1 or 2            Green chillies (finely cut)
Water
Sunflower oil or any other cooking oil
Procedure:
Mix wheat flour, ajwain, salt and red chilli powder. 

Add onion, green chillies and water to it and mix well.


Heat a pan, oil it and pour the mix in it.


When the liquid starts drying turn it over.

Pour oil on all sides.  Let it cook.

Once it is done.  Serve it with tomato chutney or sauce.


So here’s to monsoons and rain God!
