  1. soak the mung beans and quinoa for ~ 6 hrs till the mung beans plump up and are crunchy when bitten.
  2. Combine and grind in a blender to make a smooth batter with the consistency of pancake batter. with just enough enough water to make a spreadable batter.
  3. Add salt.
  4. If you prefer a slightly sour batter, leave overnight in a closed oven with the light on. Otherwise, proceed to the next step
  5. Add th the minced green chili & combine till it disperses evenly.
  6. Heat a non stick skillet and pour in a teaspoon of oil. Rub evenly with a paper towel. drop a ladle of batter in the center & spread it in a circle.
