	* Exported from MasterCook * Red Lentil Pancakes Recipe By : Serving Size : Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Volume 8-11 Nov 2005 Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 3/4 cup long grain rice 1/4 cup red lentils 1 cup warm water 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro Oil for frying Place the long grain rice and lentils in a large mixing bowl, cover with water and set aside to soak for at least 8 hours or overnight. Drain off the water and reserve. Place the rice and lentils in a food processor and blend until smooth. Blend in the reserved water. Scrape into a bowl, cover with clear film (plastic wrap) and leave in a warm place to ferment for about 24 hours. Stir in the salt, turmeric, pepper and coriander. Heat a heavy frying pan over a medium heat for a few minutes until hot. Smear with oil and add about 2-3 tablespoons batter. Using the rounded base of a soup spoon, gently spread the batter out, using a circular motion, to make a pancake that is 6 inches in diameter. Cook in the pan for 1 1 /2 to 2 minutes or until set. Drizzle a little oil over the pancake and around the edges. Turn over and cook for about 1 minute or until golden brown. Keep the cooked pancakes warm in a low oven on a heat proof plate placed over simmering water while cooking the remaining pancakes. Serve warm. NOTES : Variation: Add 4 tablespoons grated coconut to the batter just before cooking.

It is primarily used in India, where many categorize sugar made from sugar cane as jaggery and that processed from palm trees as gur. It comes in several forms, the two most popular being a soft, honey-butter texture and a solid cake-like form. The former is used to spread on breads and confections, while the solid version serves to make candies, and when crushed, to sprinkle on cereal, and so on. Jaggery has a sweet, winey fragrance and flavor that lends distinction to whatever food it embellishes. It can be purchased in East Indian markets. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Per Serving (excluding unknown items): 386 Calories; 18g Fat (43.0% calories from fat); 47g Protein; 7g Carbohydrate; 2g Dietary Fiber; 345mg Cholesterol; 343mg Sodium.
