Recipe
1
Whisk together the gram flour, buttermilk, water, turmeric powder, ginger-green chili paste, and salt in a bowl until smooth and free of lumps.
2
Pour the mixture into a heavy-bottomed pan and cook on medium-low heat, stirring continuously to prevent sticking or lump formation.
3
Cook the batter until it thickens significantly and leaves the sides of the pan, which takes about 10 to 12 minutes.
4
Immediately spread thin layers of the hot batter onto the backside of greased plates or a smooth clean countertop using a spatula.
5
Allow the spread batter to cool for a few minutes, then cut into long strips and gently roll them up tightly.
6
Arrange the rolled khandvi pieces on a serving plate.
7
Heat oil in a small pan, add mustard seeds, sesame seeds, and asafoetida, letting them splutter.
8
Pour the hot tempering evenly over the prepared khandvi rolls.
9
Garnish generously with freshly grated coconut and chopped coriander leaves before serving.
