Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. 1

    To begin making the Vegan Chickpea Omelette Recipe, first place a non-stick griddle/tava on the heat

  2. 2

    Turn the heat to low so it can slowly pre-heat while you prepare the batter

  3. 3

    To make the batter, sieve the chickpea flour/besan into a mixing bowl to remove all lumps

  4. 4

    To it, add the ginger-garlic paste, ajwain, asafoetida, turmeric powder, baking soda, onion, tomato, green chillies, Coriander leaves and salt

  5. 5

    Mix well to combine

  6. 6

    Next, stir in the coconut milk (or Soy or Almond milk), if using, and mix to make a smooth batter

  7. 7

    Alternatively, add enough water to make a batter which is smooth and spreadable, but not too watery/runny

  8. 8

    When the griddle is hot enough, pour a ladle full of the batter on it and spread evenly into a round pancake

  9. 9

    Drizzle oil along the edges of the omelette and cook for 2-3 minutes, on medium heat till the bottom is golden brown

  10. 10

    Lift it gently with a spatula to check if it releases and if that bottom has cooked

  11. 11

    When it looks golden, flip the omelette over and cook on the other side for 1-2 minutes

  12. 12

    Serve hot along with Peanut Carrot Chutney
