👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Combine Ingredients (Except Water & Oil): In a mixing bowl, combine the chickpea flour, chopped cilantro, onion, grated ginger, minced garlic, chopped chilli, salt, chilli flakes and ground turmeric. Mix until well combined.
2. 2Add Water: Gradually add the water a bit at a time to the dry ingredients, whisking well until you have a smooth batter. If the batter is too thick, add an additional 1 teaspoon of water at a time until you get a smooth and thin batter.
3. 3Heat Up Oil: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, brush the bottom of the skillet with oil, take a ladleful of batter (approx. 1/4 cup) and pour it into a heated pan.
4. 4Spread Batter in Skillet: Gently spread the crepe batter in a circular motion using the back of the ladle until the batter forms a thin circle.
5. 5Cook Until Golden: On medium low heat, let it cook on one side for about 2-3 minutes. Carefully flip, then and cook the second side for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden. Repeat with the remaining batter.
6. 6Garnish & Serve: Serve the savory crepes hot with ketchup or chutney or filling of choice.
