The creator shared the recipe on Instagram and listed all the ingredients needed to make it. Other than green moong dal and spinach, you will also need ginger, garlic, green chilli, fresh coriander, cumin seeds and salt. The recipe uses curd, grated paneer, chilli powder and a little ghee for cooking.
Begin by soaking green moong dal along with fresh spinach leaves. The creator then adds ginger, garlic, green chillies, fresh coriander, cumin seeds and salt to enhance the flavour. Everything is blended to form a smooth green batter, which is then poured in a heated pan and spread in circular motions using a ladle.
Once the base begins to cook, add paneer on top, along with some red chilli powder. Ghee is used while cooking for the crisp texture. After it reaches the right texture, fold the cheela and serve hot.
