This is a Gujarati dish and it proves quite a wholesome meal. My kids like to eat this for breakfast and well as their lunch. When the wanted something different and tasty, I knew that it was time to think “differently” too. Luckily my sister-in-law was visiting me for a short while and she displayed her cooking skills!
For the Garwanu
Wheat flour – 1 tbsp
Ghee – 1 tbsp
Milk – 1 big cup ( approx 300 ml)
Sugar – 1 tbsp
Roast the wheat flour, add ghee and saute for about a minute. Add milk and sugar and cook it till it acquires a semi – thick consistency. The Garwanu is ready. This is similar to a dip, so you can pour this into a dip bowl to serve with the chillas
For the Chillas
Wheat Flour – 3 tbsp
Gram Flour – 2 tbsp
Rice flour – 1 tbsp
(makes about 4 chillas)
Salt to taste
Turmeric – 1/4th tsp
Mix all the ingredients with water to form a smooth batter. Set aside for 10 minutes. Heat a non stick pan, grease it and pour batter and quickly spread it as a dosa. You can use pure ghee to coat each side of the chillas. Serve hot with Garwanu.
Variations : you can add chopped tomatoes, onions, green chillies and grated ginger in the batter for kids who can adjust to the taste of the veggies.
