About Besan chilas

Besan Chilas are savory crepes made from gram flour (besan), water, and spices, originating from Indian cuisine. This versatile dish commonly includes finely chopped vegetables like onions, tomatoes, and cilantro, which are mixed into the batter for added flavor and texture. Besan Chilas are naturally gluten-free and rich in plant-based protein due to the gram flour, making them a nutritious option for vegetarians and vegans. They are also low in calories and packed with fiber, which supports digestion and helps maintain fullness. The dish is typically cooked with minimal oil on a skillet, but its healthiness can be influenced by the amount and type of oil used. Besan Chilas can be enjoyed on their own, with chutneys, or yogurt for a wholesome meal or snack. Their quick preparation and nutrient-packed profile make them a popular choice for individuals seeking healthy yet satisfying meals.
