- Curd – 3 tbsp
- Turmeric Powder – 1 tsp
- Red Chilli Powder – 1 tsp
- Hing – a pinch

Method
- Mix besan, curd, salt, turmeric powder, hing, red chilli powder in a bowl. Add 3½ cups water gradually to make a batter.
- Pour the batter in a kadai and keep it on the medium flame and stir the batter continuously. Once the batter reaches a little thick consistency, turn off the heat.
- Grease the back side of the plates with a little oil and spread the thin layer of batter. (If the layer of batter applied is too thick then the khandvis won’t roll properly)
- Let them cool for 10-12 minutes. Cut strips with a knife and roll.
- For the tempering:
- In a small pan add 2 tsp oil, mustard seeds, sesame seeds, green chillies and water. Pour over the khandvis.
