1/2 medium White or yellow 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
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.
