Introduction
A delightful festive cooking episode featuring two quick recipes: savory, fluffy Paneer Besan Chilla (gram flour pancakes topped with paneer) and an easy, decadent Tiramisu-inspired Chia Coffee Pudding.
Step 1
【Paneer Besan Chilla】In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup gram flour (besan), salt to taste, chopped green chillies, finely chopped ginger, a pinch of turmeric powder, red chilli powder, and carom seeds crushed between your palms.
Step 2
【Paneer Besan Chilla】Roughly chop fresh coriander leaves with a sharp knife and add them to the bowl along with finely chopped onions.
Step 3
【Paneer Besan Chilla】Pour in water gradually and whisk continuously until a smooth, lump-free batter is formed.
Step 4
【Paneer Besan Chilla】Gently fold in baking powder (or baking soda/Eno) into the batter to make the chilla fluffy like a pancake.

【Paneer Besan Chilla】Preheat a cast iron tawa/griddle, grease lightly with oil, and pour a ladle of batter, spreading it gently.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Crush carom seeds (ajwain) between your palms before adding to release their natural aromatic oils.
Avoid bruising fresh coriander when chopping; use a sharp knife and cut lightly.
Adding a small amount of baking powder or Eno to the besan batter helps create a fluffy pancake-like texture.
Properly season and preheat the cast iron tawa with oil and a splash of water to prevent sticking.
Allow chia seeds sufficient time (at least 2-4 hours or overnight) to soak and bloom fully in the liquid.
