Chillas are quick and easy to make, once you figure out what the batter consistency has to be,... and you manage to spread your batter out in the pan.

In this recipe I cannot post exact measurements, since this will highly depend on your personal preference for flavors. However, a guideline for what all you should / could put in there is the following:
- besan (chickpea flour) - MUST
- finely chopped onions - MUST
- fresh coriander chopped - MUST
- salt, paprika - to taste
- chili flakes, chopped green chillies - optional.

Mix all ingredients together, and add enough water to form a batter of the consistency of ... I would say shampoo? Make sure you have no lumps in the batter!!!

Heat your frying pan on high, add a tablespoonful of oil before each chill. Then pour in the bater (the quantity depends on how big you want them to be) onto the middle of the pan. With the back of a spoon spread out the batter (MAKE SURE YOU DON"T BURN YOURSELF!!!) from the center toward the edges. Then sprinkle some oil on top of it (this will prevent the chilla from sticking to the pan, when you flip it!)

Fry both sides until golden brown. Serve while hot and crunchy, with or without the indian chutneys.

Enjoy!!! And... Happy Diwali!!!
