Method
- The evening before (or at least 2 hours ahead) rinse the red lentils and soak them in plenty of cold water.
- Drain and rinse the lentils and blend them with the peeled, grated ginger, the cumin, a pinch of salt and a little fresh water added a spoonful at a time, until the batter is smooth and pourable like crêpe batter.
- Trim the spring onion, slice it into thin rounds and stir it into the batter.
- Make the sauce: chop the mint leaves and stir them into the soy yoghurt with a pinch of salt; set aside.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and grease it with half the sunflower oil; pour in half the batter and immediately spread it into a thin round with the back of a ladle.
- Cook for 2–3 minutes, until the edges lift and the underside is golden, flip and cook for another 2 minutes; repeat with the remaining oil and batter.
- Serve the chillas hot with the mint yoghurt sauce.
