Methi Na Pudla/Fenugreek Crepe

Methi Na Pudla/Fenugreek Crepe is a crepe made using whole wheat flour, chickpea flour (besan), fresh fenugreek leaves (methi) and spices. It uses a good amount of fenugreek leaves and does not need any fermentation or leavening agents. It is a very quick, easy and healthy dish and can be made at any time when fresh methi leaves are available. It is good for pregnant ladies and also post-delivery as it is iron-rich.

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

In a bowl take washed and chopped fenugreek leaves. Add turmeric powder, red chilli powder, asafoetida, ginger garlic paste, (green chilli paste if you want spicier), oil. and salt

* Step 2

Rub fenugreek leaves and spices with fingers. Mix them well. Add yogurt.

* Step 3

Add whole wheat flour and chickpea flour.Mix. Add water and make batter mixing well to see no lumps are there. Keep it covered aside for 30 minutes.

* Step 4

In the meantime grease the flat anodised/aluminium/iron pan with oil. If using nonstick pan no need to grease. (I prefer using the anodised/aluminum/iron pan for makiing puddla. The puddla comes out crisp).

* Step 5

Heat the greased pan. Now pour a ladleful of batter on the heated pan. With a help of spatula spread the batter on all the sides from center to make a thin circle. (If using a non stick pan, pour the batter and spread it in a circular motion like making dosa with the ladle). Spread oil on the edges. keep the heat medium.

* Step 6

After 3-4 minutes gently flip the puddla and cook on the other side. (many times the first 2-3 puddla will not come out properly, but once the pan is heated evenly it will start coming out good).
