  1. 1

    Take the chickpea flour in a large bowl, add onion, dill, carrot and the spices and mix together.

  2. 2

    Add water and make a medium-thin batter. Heat 1 teaspoon of the butter (or ghee) in a non-stick skillet on medium-high until hot.

  3. 3

    Pour a ladleful of batter into the skillet and spread it around, as thin as possible. Cook for 3-4 minutes, and when the edges are dried out, flip over, and cook the other side for 3-4 minutes. It should be browned nicely on the bottom on the first side, similar to an omelette. The other side should have nice brown spots.

  4. 4

    This MUST be eaten warm. The flavour is not at its peak when cool.
