Besan ke pude/pudla/dosa

Besan pudas or teekha pudla as we call it in Gujarati, is a quick and simple snack. We sometimes also make it for breakfast or in the evening when we are going for a light dinner. On days when you come home from a trip and the vegetable basket is empty or when you are too tired to cook anything elaborate, pudas are a convenient option.

Besan ke pude/pudla/dosa
Ingredients

1. Besan – 1 big cup
2. Rava – 2 teaspoons
3. Kasoori methi – 1 tbsp (optional)
4. Garlic – 3 cloves, crushed
5. Red chilly powder
6. Dhania powder
7. Salt
8. Asafoetida

Method of preparation:

Add rava and other ingredients to besan and make medium-thick batter (slightly watery than dosa). Kasoori methi is optional, the pudas taste good even without the methi. Keep aside for an hour. I am an impatient cook and I tried to skip that wait for 1 hour, but the pudas then dont turn out soft and porous. That 1 hour wait makes all the difference. Then pour the batter using a ladle and roll out thin pudas (like dosas) on a nonstick tava and add a few drops of oil if required. Pudas or pudlas can be served with tomato chutney/curd/pickle.
