Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 0.25 cup Besan (Chickpea flour)
- 1.25 cups Water
- 1 medium Onion
- 1 medium Tomato
- 1 piece Green chili
- 0.5 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 0.25 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Coriander leaves
- 2 tablespoons Oil
Instructions
Start by dry roasting the rolled oats in a pan for about 2-3 minutes on medium heat until they turn slightly golden. Allow them to cool.
Grind the roasted oats into a fine powder using a grinder or food processor.
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground oats, besan, water, cumin seeds, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Mix well to form a smooth batter.
Finely chop the onion, tomato, and green chili. Add them to the batter along with chopped coriander leaves.
Stir the mixture to evenly distribute the vegetables and spices. The batter should be of pouring consistency; adjust water if needed.
Heat a non-stick pan or a griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with a bit of oil.
Pour a ladleful of the batter onto the pan and spread it evenly into a circle using the back of the ladle.
Drizzle a little oil around the edges of the chilla. Cook for 3-4 minutes on medium heat until the sides start to lift slightly.
Flip the chilla gently and cook for another 3 minutes on the other side until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil as needed.
Serve the sugar-free oats chilla hot with yogurt or a chutney of your choice.
