Method

Prepare the Batter:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine gram flour, yogurt, and water. Whisk until smooth and lump-free.
• Add ginger-green chili paste, turmeric powder, and salt to taste. Mix well.

Cook the Batter:

• Transfer the batter to a non-stick pan. Cook on medium heat, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
• Continue to cook until the batter thickens and forms a smooth, lump-free consistency (about 8-10 minutes).

Spread the Batter:

• Quickly spread the hot batter onto the back of a greased stainless steel plate or a flat surface using a spatula. Spread it as thinly as possible.
• Allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes.

Roll the Khandvi:

• Once cooled, cut the spread batter into 2-inch wide strips. Now, spread a layer of stuffing evenly over the batter.
• Gently roll each strip into a tight roll. Make sure that the khandvi doesn’t breaks. Once done, place the khandvis on a serving plate and keep it aside.

Prepare the Tempering:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a small pan. Add 1 teaspoon of mustard seeds and let them splutter.
• Add 1 teaspoon of sesame seeds and a pinch of asafoetida. Sauté for a few seconds.

Garnish and Serve:

• Pour the tempering over the rolled Khandvi.
• Garnish with grated coconut and chopped fresh coriander leaves.
