tomato omelette (no eggs) serves 4-6
¾ cup fresh tomatoes, peeled and finely chopped
1½ cups chickpea flour
2 hot green chili peppers, seeded and minced
1 small bunch fresh coriander or parsley leaves, minced
1 teaspoon dry-roasted sesame seeds
½ teaspoon turmeric
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt, to taste
Dash white pepper (optional)
1½ cups cold water
ghee or oil for griddle frying
1.
Combine all the ingredients except the ghee or oil. If batter is too thick, add a little more cold
water to obtain a thin, pouring consistency. Heat a heavy cast- iron griddle or nonstick frying pan
over moderate heat until very hot.
2.
Reduce heat and brush the griddle or frying pan liberally with ghee or oil. Place 2 tablespoons
batter and spread as thin as you can. Fold, serve hot with fried potatoes, sour cream and
chutney. Delicious alone for breakfast.
