Bengali Pan Cake ( Gola Ruti )

After two heavy dishes , now this time for some quick snack recipe.
Very easy to cook with all easily available ingredients in our kitchen . Some times can be eaten in brunch if you try are trying to avoid going to kitchen for preparing one meal.

Basically it can be made as vegetarian as well as non vegetarian recipe.
I am writing down it as non vegetarian one (being a pure non vegetarian). Will give way out for vegetarian as well at the end  :)

Ingredients :-

All purpose flour (maida)
Ajwain 
Eggs 
Onions
Green Chili
Tomato
Capcicum
Cauliflower
Coriander Leaves
Ajwain 
Red chili Powder
Black Pepper
Salt
Sugar 

Method:-

First in a bowl , mix all purpose flour  add ajwain , finely chopped onions , finely chopped capcicum , finely chopped tomatoes , finely chopped cauliflower, chopped green chilies , coriander leaves , red chili powder , pepper powder ,salt and sugar (a lil bit). Mix well.
Now beat 2 eggs seperately with a pinch of salt and add it to the above mixture.

Keep the batter aside for 15 mins 

Heat a flat bottom pan , grease it olive oil / refine oil.
Put the batter in small portion each time , let it be golden brown on one side , then flip it and allow it to cook .

Serve hot with chutney or ketchup .

N.B:: If you are preparing it for vegetarian , in place of beaten eggs, just add milk to it , rest all the process would remain the same . :)
