Method

  • Heat 1 and 3/4 cups water in a pan and add the powdered jaggery. Stir and allow it to melt completely to form a syrup.
  • Combine wheat flour, grated coconut, salt and powdered cardamom in a bowl.
  • Add the melted jaggery syrup to the bowl and mix everything with a spoon to form a batter. The batter should have a pouring consistency but shouldn’t be runny.
  • Heat a non stick frying pan or tava. Pour a few ladles of batter and spread to form a circular disc.
  • Cover and cook the ada on medium heat for 2-3 minutes.
  • Flip with a spatula and cook the other side until lightly browned.

Notes

  • You can make 4-5 pancakes using the above quantities.
  • You can also use brown sugar instead of jaggery.
  • You may have to add more or less water for the batter depending on the wheat flour used.
  • If the batter is watery, the pancakes will stick to the pan. If it is too thick, you will have difficulty spreading the batter.
