Besan pancakes

Really easy to prepare and cook spiced breakfast pancakes. Serve these with any chutney, curry sauce, thinly sliced onions or even just ketchup.

INGREDIENTS
1 cup besan flour (also called chickpea flour or garbanzo flour)
1 cup water
1 tsp turmeric powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 chopped chilli (fresh or dried). Leave this out if you prefer.
2 spring onions, chopped
Pepper to taste
Oil for frying

METHOD
Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and use a whisk to gently combine.  The batter is quite watery. Don't adjust - this will work fine.
Heat enough oil to coat a frying pan over a medium flame.
Add a ladle-full of the batter to the pan. Pick up the pan and roll the mixture out thinly across the pan.
Cook for 2 to 3 minutes then using a spatula flip the pancake and cook the other side. Remove to a warm plate, make sure the pan is still coated in oil, then cook the next pancake.
You should get 4 or 5 pancakes from this recipe.

Serve with your topping of choice (or without!)
