Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup gram flour (besan)
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon ginger paste
- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
- 0.25 teaspoon asafoetida (hing)
- 10 leaves curry leaves
- 2 tablespoons freshly grated coconut
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gram flour, coconut milk, water, lemon juice, ginger paste, turmeric powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk well to form a smooth, lump-free batter.
Transfer the batter to a non-stick pan and cook over medium heat, stirring continuously to prevent lumps.
Cook until the mixture thickens and begins to leave the sides of the pan. This process may take about 10-12 minutes.
To test if the mixture is ready, spread a small portion onto a greased plate. If it rolls up easily without sticking, the batter is done.
Grease the back of a few large plates or a clean countertop with coconut oil. Spread the cooked batter evenly and thinly using a spatula.
Allow the spread batter to cool for a few minutes, then cut into 2-inch wide strips using a knife.
Gently roll each strip into a tight spiral and arrange on a serving platter.
Heat coconut oil in a small pan for tempering. Add mustard seeds and allow them to splutter.
Add asafoetida and curry leaves, sauté for a few seconds until aromatic, and pour this tempering over the rolled khandvi.
Garnish with freshly grated coconut and chopped cilantro before serving.
