Moog DaL Panki

moog DaL pancakes
 This is a wholesome and healthy break-fast dish. I used saalwali/chilkewali/skinned moog daL as it's  an healthier option. I soaked the DaL overnight as this is the winter but in summer 3-4 hours are sufficient.

Ingredients (makes 2-3)
1/2 cup moog daL( wash and soak in 1 cup water for minimum 3-4 hours)

To be ground in fine paste
soaked DaL
1 green chili
5-6 stalks of coriander leaves
2-3 garlic cloves
small ginger piece
1/2 tsp cumin seeds
1/4 tsp turmeric powder
1/4 tsp asafoetida
1 tbl sp curd
salt and sugar to taste

Method

• Grind all the ingredients along with the soaked dal (do not drain ).
• Grease the non-stick pan and spread the batter to make a pancake. Cover with a lid.
• Turn on the other side when done. Add few drops of oil from sides if required.
• Serve hot with tomato ketch up.

Note
For change in taste, you can add chopped methi leaves in the batter.
For non- oily version, banana leaf can be used which will give you the 'steamed panki'.
