Tips
  • Take an equal proportion of gram flour and curd. Water should be double the quantity of gram flour.
  • Cook khandvi batter on high flame for 3 to 4 minutes or till it becomes slightly transparent.
  • Don't cook the Khandvi batter for too long. If the mixture thickens, the layers will become thick as well.
  • Spread the khandvi batter over the greased surface as quickly & swiftly as possible for thin layers. If cooled, the batter will become lumpy.
  • Cool down khandvi complete and then roll it. Do not roll when it is slightly hot.
  • Khandvi goes best with coriander chutney or coriander mint chutney
