Indian Chickpea Pancakes

Ingredients

1/2 medium White onions (minced)
1 medium whole (2-3/5 inch dia) Tomatoes (seeded and diced)
1/2 cup Coriander (cilantro) leaves, raw (coarsely chopped)
1 1/2 cup Chickpea flour (garbanzo flour)
1 cup Water
1/4 tsp. Salt
1 to taste Black pepper
1/2 tsp.. Ground cumin
3 tsp. Olive oil (divided)

Instructions

Place the onion, tomato and cilantro in a medium mixing bowl.

Add the garbanzo flour and fold together with the vegetables.

Add the water, salt, pepper and cumin.

Using a rubber spatula, fold the batter together until the flour is well blended and smooth.

Place a non stick griddle over medium high heat. Add one teaspoon olive oil and then the batter - 4 tablespoons for each pancake. Cook for about 5 minutes on each side and then remove. Repeat with olive oil and the remaining better. There should be about 12 pancakes total.

If using a smaller skillet you may need to make fewer pancakes in each batch so they are not crowded together.

Recipe Notes

These pancakes are super simple and so savory. Serve them with a fresh mango chutney or mango salsa.
These make a great side dish for a lot of recipes. Use them in place of rice for the Indian Shrimp Curry or Chicken Vindaloo.
