These savory Indian pancakes are made from a batter of chickpea flour, water and spices, cooked in a thin layer. Cooking them without oil in the air fryer makes a quick, light breakfast.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Mix the batter

5 min

Gradually add water to the chickpea flour to make a smooth, pourable batter. Stir in the onion, tomato, turmeric, cumin and salt.

2

Prepare the basket

3 min

Lightly oil a pan that fits inside the air fryer basket with olive oil. Pour the batter into the pan in a thin layer.

3

Air-fry

7 min

Place the pan in the preheated air fryer basket and cook at 190°C / 375°F for 7 minutes, until the top puffs up and the edges are lightly golden. If you do not have an air fryer, cook for the same time in an oven preheated to 190°C / 375°F, set to broil.

Reminder

Do not make the batter too thin, or it will spread out in the air fryer basket. It should pour like pancake batter but still hold a thin layer.
