Chickpea Flour Pancakes

== Description ==
(Cheela ka besan) 
This Indian crêpe-like "pancake" can be used to roll up leftover vegetable curry for a satisfying lunch.
== Ingredients ==
* ½ cup besan (chickpea flour)
* 3 tbsp chapati flour (or substitute all-purpose wheat flour)
* pinch turmeric powder
* ½ tsp minced ginger (or a pinch of ginger powder if fresh ginger is unavailable)
* ⅓ tsp cumin powder
* ¼ tsp paprika
* ¼ tsp salt
* 1 to 1½ cup water
* 1 tbsp sesame seeds
* a few pieces minced cilantro
* ghee or oil for frying
== Directions ==
# Mix dry ingredients with a whisk to remove lumps.
# Add enough water to make a medium-thick batter (not stiff, not runny). The amount of water that you will need depends on the flours that you are using.
# Add all remaining ingredients except ghee or oil and mix well.
# Let stand for about 15 minutes.
# Heat a small amount of ghee or oil in a nonstick crepe pan (or a pan with low sides).
# When the pan is hot, pour in about ⅓ cup of batter. Rotate the pan so that the batter spreads out.
# Cook for a few minutes before turning the pancake to cook on the other side.
# Keep warm in oven until you have used up all the batter.
