Savory pancakes made from a blend of urad daal and rice flour, served with a spicy mango chutney for a delicious and filling snack.
**Prepare the Daal Batter:** Drain the soaked urad daal and grind it in a blender or food processor with a little water to form a smooth batter. The batter should be thick but pourable. Add more water as needed.
**Combine Ingredients:** In a bowl, mix the urad daal batter with rice flour, chopped green chilies, grated ginger, chopped cilantro, asafoetida (if using), and salt. Mix well and add water gradually until you reach a pancake-like batter consistency.
**Make the Mango Chutney:** Combine chopped mango, red chili powder, cumin powder, garam masala, and lemon juice in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. Add a little water if needed to reach the desired consistency. Adjust spices to taste.
**Cook the Pancakes:** Heat a griddle or flat pan over medium heat. Grease it lightly with oil.
Pour a ladleful of batter onto the hot griddle and spread it slightly to form a small, thick pancake.
Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Drizzle a little oil around the edges while cooking.
**Serve:** Serve the urad daal pancakes hot with the spicy mango chutney. Garnish the chutney with mint leaves, if desired.
