These delicious and naturally gluten free pancakes are perfect for scooping up your favourite curries and dals. Inspired by Konkani lentil pancakes, made simply by soaking lentils for a few hours then blending to a batter. Missi roti are spiced tandoori breads flavoured with chillies and herbs. This recipe combines the two, to make a protein-packed and healthy alternative to bread.

METHOD

To make 6 pancakes, soak 1 cup of lentils in water for approx 3hrs. Rinse then blend with 2 cups of fresh water to make a smooth batter. Finely chop 2-4 green chillies, 1 small red onion & small handful of fresh coriander. Mix the batter with the veggies & add salt to taste (about 1 tsp).

Add 1/2 tsp coconut oil to small frying pan & place on medium high heat. Add 2 tbsp batter mixture & smooth to thin layer using a spatula. Cook gently on each side for 3-4 minutes. Repeat to make 6 missi pancake ‘roti’. These pancake 'roti' can be reheated or frozen if needed.
