Chir Chot is an authentic Kashmiri pancake prepared using rice flour and black zeera. Chir chot is usually served as a tea time snack.  Chir chot is served usually with Kashmiri Kehva tea.

Method.

• In a bowl, sieve rice flour. Add salt and zeera seeds. Add water little by little and form a batter. It should be of pancake consistency neither thick nor watery.
• Heat tawa over a high flame. Once the tawa is hot, reduce the flame
• Take a ladle of batter and spread it in a round shape evenly on the tawa. Drizzle oil on the sides and cover with a lid.  Cook until the bottom layer turns light brown. Once can see the pores on the upper side. Ensure the upper side is covered with a lid. This prevents the upper layer from becoming dry.
• Apply little oil on the upper side and flip it. Cook until the other side turns light brown.

Serve Chir Chot with hot Kehwa Tea.
