how to make the chilla batter

To make hariyali chilla recipe | healthy hariyali cheela | mix flours and green vegetable chilla | in a deep bowl, add ½ cup peeled and grated bottle gourd (doodhi / lauki). Doodhi is a good source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, potassium, and magnesium, which are essential for overall health and well-being. After grating the doodhi, squeeze out the excess water using a clean kitchen towel. This will prevent the chilla from becoming watery or soggy.
Add ½ cup finely chopped spinach (palak). Spinach adds a distinct earthy and slightly bitter flavor to the chilla, giving it a characteristic "hariyali" (green) taste. Spinach is a powerhouse of essential vitamins and minerals like vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, and magnesium, contributing to the nutritional value of the chilla.
Add ½ cup finely chopped baby fenugreek leaves (methi). Methi is a good source of vitamins and minerals, including iron, calcium, and vitamin K. Methi has a unique and slightly bitter flavor with a pleasant earthy aroma. This creates a well-rounded and balanced flavor profile.

Add ¼ cup finely chopped radish leaves (mooli ke patte). Radish leaves have a characteristic peppery and slightly bitter taste, adding a delightful layer of complexity and depth to the chilla's flavor profile.
Add ¼ cup whole wheat flour (gehun ka atta). Wheat flour provides the base and foundation for the chilla batter. It acts as a binding agent, holding all the ingredients together and forming a cohesive batter that can be cooked and shaped into a thin pancake.
Add 3 tbsp besan (bengal gram flour). Besan contributes to a smooth and even texture in the chilla. Its fine texture blends well with other ingredients, preventing any grittiness or lumps.
Add 2 tbsp jowar (white millet) flour. Jowar flour has a subtly sweet and nutty flavor that adds depth and complexity to the chilla.
Add 2 tbsp rajgira (amaranth) flour. Rajgira flour is packed with various nutrients, including iron, calcium, and phosphorus, which are crucial for maintaining overall health and well-being.

Add 1 tsp ginger (adrak) green chilli paste. Ginger and green chilies both contribute unique, aromatic notes to the chilla. Ginger brings a warm, slightly sweet peppery aroma, while green chilies offer a fresh, herbaceous scent.
Add a pinch of carom seeds (ajwain). Ajwain adds a distinctive warm, slightly bitter, and pungent flavor to the chilla.
Add a pinch of asafoetida.
Add ¼ tsp turmeric powder (haldi).
Add 1 tbsp finely chopped coriander (dhania).

Add salt to taste.
Add 1 cup water.
Mix well.
