Egg Recipe
Description
This unique egg dish transforms humble chickpea flour into a rich, savory base that mimics the texture of a traditional omelet while adding a delightful nuttiness. The combination of carom seeds (ajwain), paprika, and chaat masala creates a complex flavor profile that is both comforting and exciting. Perfect for a quick vegetarian breakfast or a light dinner, it requires minimal ingredients yet delivers maximum taste. The beaten eggs bind the batter, ensuring a fluffy interior with a crispy, golden crust. Serve it hot with a squeeze of lemon and fresh chutney for a meal that is as satisfying as it is simple to prepare.Ingredients
Directions
-
In a large bowl, whisk the chickpea flour with the beaten egg, crushed garlic, paprika, carom seeds, salt, and chaat masala until a smooth, lump-free batter forms.
-
Add a splash of water if the batter is too thick; it should have the consistency of heavy cream.
-
Heat half of the oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
-
Pour the batter into the hot skillet, spreading it evenly to form a circle.
-
Cook for 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and the edges begin to lift.
-
Carefully flip the omelet and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side until firm.
-
Slide onto a plate and serve immediately while hot.
