👩‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Prepare the Batter:
   • In a mixing bowl, combine kuttu atta, sendha namak, cumin seeds, green chili, grated potato, and coriander leaves.
   • Slowly add water to make a smooth, pourable batter (like dosa batter). Avoid lumps.
2. Heat the Tawa:
   • Heat a non-stick or iron tawa and lightly grease it with ghee or oil.
3. Cook the Cheela:
   • Pour a ladle of batter and spread gently in a circular motion.
   • Cook on medium heat. Drizzle ghee/oil around the edges.
   • Flip after 2–3 minutes or when the bottom is golden brown.
   • Cook the other side until crisp and cooked through.
4. Serve Hot:
   • Serve with vrat chutney like:
     • Coconut chutney (without mustard seeds)
     • Mint-peanut chutney
     • Plain curd (dahi)

💡 Tips:

• Let the batter rest for 10–15 minutes for better texture.
• Add grated veggies (like lauki) for fiber and moisture.
• Make small cheelas if the batter is delicate.
