For the Garnishing:

2 tbsp finely chopped coriander (dhania), 2 tbsp freshly grated coconut (optional)

Steps to make Khandvi:

2. Cook on a slow flame, while stirring continuously, till the mixture becomes thick (approx. 8 to 10 minutes).

3. Spread a spoonful of the batter on the reverse side of a greased thali and wait for a few seconds and try to roll up. If it doesn’t then cook for few more minutes and try once more to roll up.

4. Divide the batter into 2 equal portions.

5. Spread each portion on the reverse side of 2 greased thalis (approximately 10" in diameter) evenly to make a thin uniform layer using a spatula while the mixture is still hot.

6. When cool, make cuts at a distance of 1½” to 2” lengthwise on each thali lengthwise and roll it up each gently. Place the khandvis on a serving plate.

7. For the tempering, heat the oil in a small non-stick pan and add the cumin seeds.

8. When the seeds crackle, add the sesame seeds and curry leaves and sauté on a medium flame for a few seconds.
