Besan Chilla, a savory pancake from Indian cuisine, is a nutritious and flavorful dish made from gram flour (besan), water, and spices, often enriched with finely chopped vegetables like onions, tomatoes, and spinach. This versatile meal is naturally gluten-free and rich in protein due to its chickpea-based flour. It is also a good source of dietary fiber and essential vitamins and minerals. Typically cooked with minimal oil, Besan Chilla can be a heart-healthy option when prepared mindfully. Low in refined carbohydrates, it supports balanced energy levels and can be a great choice for diabetics or those managing weight. However, excessive use of oil or pairing it with calorie-dense accompaniments like fried chutneys can add unnecessary fats. Perfect for breakfast or as a light snack, Besan Chilla is a wholesome dish that combines simplicity, nutrition, and authentic Indian flavors.
