Just want to do my part and spread the gospel of chilla, veggie pancakes, fritters, whatever you may call them. I’m sure a lot of versions exist for savory pancakes in a lot of regions but it’s a top contender for a way to get a whole bunch of nutrition in each bite (aside from #1 of all time, soup, of course). I didn’t have any red lentils and didn’t feel like using moong dal so I’ve been soaking yellow split peas, which are a commonly found ingredient in the US (I got these from the food bank) and mixing them with shredded veg and spices for some awesome pancakes. there are almost limitless options for flavor profiles too. These have cumin, coriander, turmeric, msg, kashmiri chili, ginger, s&p and I sauteed shredded carrot, zucchini, cabbage, garlic and green onions. mix it in a bowl with the blended legume and chopped cilantro and black sesame seeds and fry up some cakes.

    I have no idea what that is but, you’re probably right. beans do have a lot of protein after all
