Ingredients:
• 2 cups – Yellow moong or green moong (Pesarapappu)
• 1 bunch – Mint leaves
• 1 tsp – Cumin
• 5 or 6 – Green chillies (or according to taste)
• A small piece of ginger, peeled and chopped (optional)
• Salt
• Oil
Method:
- Wash and soak moong dal for at least 6 hours.
- Wash and remove leaves from mint twigs. Discard hard stems.
- Grind soaked moong dal into a fine paste along with mint leaves, cumin seeds, green chillies, ginger and salt.
- Make the batter into medium consistency (not too thin or not too thick).
- Heat a non-stick pan.
- When it is hot, pour a ladleful of the batter and spread evenly into a round shape.
- Sprinkle some oil around the pesarattu and cover.
- After some time, remove the cover and flip the pesarattu over.
- Again cover and leave for some time.
- When the pesarattu appears to be cooked, remove it from the pan and transfer to a serving plate.
- Repeat the same process with rest of the batter.
- This pesarattu can be eaten just like that as it already spicy or can be eaten with any chutney.
