Ingredients 

1 cup bajra (pearl millet) flour ½ cup fresh methi (fenugreek) leaves, finely chopped ¼ cup finely chopped onions ¼ cup grated carrot ¼ cup besan (gram flour) 1 green chili, finely chopped ½ teaspoon cumin seeds Salt to taste Water, as needed Ghee or oil for cooking 

Step 1 

In a mixing bowl, combine bajra flour, besan, chopped methi leaves, onions, grated carrot, green chili, cumin seeds, and salt. Gradually add water to form a smooth, lump-free batter with a pouring consistency. 

Step 2 

Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with ghee or oil. Pour a ladleful of the batter onto the pan, spreading it in a circular motion to form a thin cheela. Cook until the edges turn golden brown, then flip and cook the other side. 

Step 3

Repeat the process for the remaining batter. Serve the Methi Bajra Cheela hot with chutney or yogurt for a wholesome and nutritious meal.
