2 tbsp oil
2 tsp mustard seeds
1/2 tsp carom seeds
1 sprig curry leaves

Method

Blend the moong dal to a coarse paste using ½ cup of water.
Transfer the mixture into a deep bowl, add semolina, besan, coriander, chilli paste, ginger garlic paste, salt and ¼ cup of water and mix well.
Just before making the handvo, add the fruit salt and 2 tsp of water evenly over it and mix gently.

Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a 5” non-stick pan and add 1 tsp mustard seeds, ¼ tsp carom seeds, 1 kashmiri red chilli, 1/2 sprig curry leaves, 1 tsp sesame seeds, ¼ tsp asafoetida and sauté on a medium flame for a few seconds.

Pour ½ the batter over it and spread it evenly.
Cover it with a lid and cook on a medium flame for 10 minutes or till the base turns golden brown in colour and crisp.
Lift the handvo gently using 2 large flat spoons and turn it over to the other side.

Cover and cook on a medium flame for another 7 to 8 minutes or till it turns golden brown in colour.
Cool slightly and cut into equal pieces.
Repeat the steps for the remaining half of the mixture to make 1 more handvo.
Serve immediately with green chutney.
