Ingredients

• 2 cups water
• salt to taste
• 1 ½ teaspoons white sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
• 1 tablespoon peanut oil
• 1 cup chickpea flour
• 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
• 1 cup thick buttermilk
• 1 teaspoon asafoetida powder
• 1 teaspoon chopped curry leaves

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine water, buttermilk, chickpea flour, sugar, 1 teaspoon asafoetida powder, turmeric, and salt in a microwave-safe bowl; beat into a smooth batter with no lumps remaining.

Step 2

Cook chickpea mixture in the microwave on high for 90 seconds. Beat mixture to break up any lumps. Repeat 3 times, cooking at 90-second intervals and beating after each interval until mixture is slightly thicker than hummus.

Step 3

Spread mixture into 2 thin 12x18-inch sheets on a clean and dry steel, granite, or marble kitchen counter using a palette knife. Let cool, 5 to 10 minutes.

Step 4

Cut sheet into 1-inch thick ribbons. Roll up ribbons like a jelly roll.

Step 5

Heat peanut oil in a saucepan over low heat. Add mustard seeds; cook until they start to pop, about 30 seconds. Stir in curry leaves and 1 teaspoon asafoetida powder.

Step 6

Spoon oil mixture over rolls.
