Semolina and bottle gourd savory pancakes (Suzi aur lauki ke chile)

These Pancakes I made this Sunday for breakfast and they are very yummy. healthy and filling. Main thing is that my elder daughter love them so much that she want them for lunch also. I hope everyone like them, you must try this recipe........

Preparation time :- 30 min.                                    Cooking time :- 20 min.

Makes :- 12 Pancakes                                          Serves :- 6 People






Ingredients :-

1 1/2 cups grated bottle gourd
1 1/2 cups semolina
1/2 cup wheat flour or gram flour
1 1/2 cup buttermilk or yogurt
water as needed
salt to taste
1/2 tsp red pepper powder
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp coriander powder
oil for pancakes
Non - stick pan or tawa


1. Mix dry ingredients together.


2. Add buttermilk by mixing it slowly.


3. Add grated bottle gourd and water as needed to make pancake like consistency.


4. Keep pancake mixture for 20 minutes to set.



5. Check the consistency again after 20 minutes (as semolina expands in liquid) add water if needed to make it easily spreadable.

6. Heat pan over high heat and put 1 tsp oil, let it heat nicely, now put 1/2 cup of batter on pan and spread evenly to form circle.



 7. Slow the heat to medium high and let it cook on one side and flip it over.



8. Cook nicely till golden brown on other side also and serve hot with any sauce or chutney. I served it with Curry leaves and peanuts chutney. will soon share its recipe too in my upcoming post.

Note :-

1. Always heat pan fully before putting batter to avoid sticking.
2. don't put any oil for another pancake before pouring batter.
3. Put oil around the edges before flipping it over.
