To prepare, simply combine the besan chilla mix with water to form a smooth batter. You can adjust the consistency by adding more or less water as needed. Heat a lightly oiled skillet or griddle over medium heat. Pour a ladleful of batter onto the hot surface and spread it into a thin circle. Cook for a few minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. You can add chopped vegetables or spices to the batter for extra flavor before cooking.
