These mix lentil savoury pancakes (or Chillas as they are called in Hindi) are a healthy, protein-packed breakfast. I have loaded them with grated zucchini, carrots, spring onions and beans to add that an extra dose of healthy minerals and vitamins and make them a whole meal. Served them with my favorite cilantro-tomato-garlic chutney, hung curd and some pomegranate seeds.
