Did you know that you can make an omelette alternative with gram or besan flour (chickpea flour)? Chickpea flour is a staple ingredient in Indian cooking, and is often used for a besan chilla ( savoury pancake). This savoury pancake is a great alternative for those who are not eating eggs, with the addition of kala namak (black salt) that has an egg-y taste. It really resembles the texture and taste of an omelette! It is also naturally gluten free. Plus they’re completely soy free, which is often found in egg alternatives for vegans or those following a plant based diet. This recipe is also high in protein from the chickpeas! Nutty in taste, and super nutritious!
