Ingredients
- 1 cup garbanzo (chickpea) flour
- 4 oz soft tofu, well-drained and crumbled into tiny pieces
- ½ cup finely chopped onions
- 1 Tbsp finely chopped ginger root (peeled)
- 1 Tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
- ½ tsp ajwan (oregano seeds) (optional)
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp red chili flakes (optional)
- ¼ tsp baking soda
- 3/4 – 1 cup water
Intructions
- Add the salt and baking soda to garbanzo flour. Add water to create a batter just thin enough to be poured. Then add all the other ingredients and mix.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat before adding one tsp of cooking oil. If the skillet is not hot enough to start with, your pancakes will turn out soggy.
- Once the oil is shimmering, pour in the batter to make a 5-inch pancake. Cook until golden brown on each side, adding more oil before flipping if necessary.
Notes
Notes: If cooking for children, reduce spices to taste.
