How to Make Aloo Cheela/ आलू चीला – Easy Step-by-Step Instructions.

Prepare the batter:
In a large bowl, mash the boiled potatoes until smooth. Add gram flour, green chilies, ginger, fresh coriander, salt, red chili powder, turmeric, and cumin seeds (if using). Gradually add water and mix until you get a thick, smooth batter. Adjust the water to get the right consistency. (Time taken: 5-7 minutes)

Heat the pan:
Place a non-stick pan or griddle on medium heat. Drizzle a little oil and let it heat up. Test by splashing a little water on the surface—if it sizzles, the pan is ready. (Time taken: 2-3 minutes)

Cook the Cheela:
Spoon a portion of the batter onto the hot pan and spread it gently into a round shape, just like a pancake. Drizzle a little oil around the edges and cook on medium heat. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom turns golden and crispy. Flip it carefully and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes. (Time taken: 4-5 minutes per side)

Serve:
Once both sides are golden and crispy, remove the Aloo Cheela from the pan and serve hot with chutney or yogurt on the side. (Time taken: 1 minute)
