Multi Lentil Protein Packed Indian Crepe



These Indian crepes are a nutritious and protein-packed breakfast or snack option. Made with a blend of red lentils, green lentils, and flavorful spices, they are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup red lentils
  • 1/2 cup green lentils
  • 1/4 cup chickpea flour
  • 1/4 cup rice flour
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onions
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped tomatoes
  • 2 green chilies, finely chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon coriander powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garam masala
  • Salt to taste
  • Water as needed
  • Oil for cooking

Instructions:

Wash and soak red lentils and green lentils separately for 4-5 hours

Drain the lentils and grind them into a smooth batter separately, using minimal water

The consistency should be like pancake batter

In a mixing bowl, combine the red lentil batter, green lentil batter, chickpea flour, rice flour, finely chopped onions, finely chopped tomatoes, green chilies, cumin seeds, turmeric powder, coriander powder, garam masala, and salt

Mix well to form a smooth batter

Add water if needed to adjust the consistency

Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and grease it lightly with oil

Pour a ladleful of the batter onto the skillet and spread it into a thin, even circle like a crepe

Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden brown, then flip it over and cook the other side until it's cooked through and crispy

Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding a little oil to the skillet before each crepe

Serve the multi-lentil protein-packed Indian crepes hot with chutney, yogurt, or your favorite dipping sauce
