Chatamari
Chataa-maree (Rice Pancakes)
This is an excellent savory appetizer made of rice pancakes
and stuffed with or without vegetarian or non-vegetarian mixture. Original
recipe does not normally call for soaked lentils, but the addition thatof takes
this preparation to another level.
200 GRAM RICE FLOUR
BUNCH OF GREEN ONIONS, chopped
400 GRAM MINCED MEAT
PIECE OF GINGERROOT, grated
1/2 TSP CUMIN SEEDS
2 GREEN CHILLIES, chopped
150 GRAM POTATO SAUCE or KETCHUP
Mix the rice flour
with 200 gram water and some salt and bake 6 very thin pancakes. In the
meantime, stir fry the ginger and the green onions three minutes, add the
minced meat and the cumin seeds and stir fry 8 minutes more. Mix the tomato
sauce with the chillies and distribute over the pancakes. Spoon the mince meat
on top. You can serve them like this, or roll them up and bake them in the oven
at 180 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes (thus, you can also prepare them in
advance).
