Rava besan pudla recipe | rava besan chilla | suji besan chilla

Pudla (chilla) is a tasty and healthy recipe made with a combination of gram flour (besan), rava, vegetables, and regular spices. It is a nutritious meal for early morning breakfast or as a snack for kids, providing all the essential nutrients. Thin, crispy, and very easy to prepare with common kitchen ingredients, these chillas do not require any side dish but taste great when served with spicy dahi chutney. Do try this!

The key to making tasty rava besan pudla (chilla) at home are

1. Firstly, I made pudla batter with equal proportions of rava and gram flour (besan). Gram flour provides binding and enhances the taste, while rava gives it a crispy texture. I also highly recommend soaking and resting the batter for a minimum of 20 minutes.

2. In the batter, I add tadka, which enhances the taste of the pudla and makes it soft when it cools down. You can also add vegetables of your choice to make it more nutritious.

3. The chilla batter should be thin and watery so that it can be easily poured onto the pan. Additionally, the dosa pan should be very hot when the batter is poured on top, allowing it to spread easily and create a lacy (jalidar) texture.

4. Roast the pudla (chilla) on medium flame; do not cook it on high flame, as it will become raw inside.

5. Lastly, rava besan chilla tastes great when served hot with spicy chutney.
