Pesarattu is a savory, protein-rich pancake originating from Andhra Pradesh, India. Made primarily with mung beans and rice, this dish is a staple of South Indian cuisine. The batter is seasoned with green chilies, ginger, and cumin, adding flavor and a mild spice. Often served with tangy chutneys or upma, Pesarattu is naturally gluten-free and packed with essential nutrients such as fiber, iron, and plant-based protein. Its high protein content makes it a great option for vegetarians or anyone seeking a filling, balanced meal. Mung beans also support digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels. However, when paired with oily accompaniments or excessive salt, its health benefits may be diminished. Best enjoyed freshly made, Pesarattu is a versatile choice for breakfast or lunch, offering wholesome nutrition with authentic Indian flavors.
