• Make pieces as shown.( approx. 10-12 pieces of medium thickness)
• Apply lemon juice,chili powder,turmeric powder and salt evenly. Keep aside for 5-10 minutes to marinate.
• Take rice flour in a shallow plate. Coat each piece with it from both sides.
• Heat the griddle and arrange the pieces on it. Add oil from sides. Cover with a lid and let it cook on medium -low flame.
• Check after 2-3 minutes. Turn the sides and no covering this time. Add few drops of oil if required.

 Note
I could not take the picture of the finished product as they all finished before I could capture the photograph. I will load it some other time I make it.
This can be a fasting (upwas) recipe if avoid using turmeric powder. ( I don't know why we can't use turmeric for upwas???)
