Chilla is a popular Indian breakfast dish made from a batter of gram flour (besan) and spices. It is a savory pancake that is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Chilla is a versatile dish that can be customized with various fillings like vegetables, cheese, or paneer. It is not only delicious but also nutritious, as gram flour is high in protein and fiber. Chilla is typically served with chutney or yogurt for a satisfying and healthy breakfast or snack.
