there are several ways these simple instant suji ka cheela recipe is prepared. basically the variation with the cheela with its batter consistency and the toppings added on top of it. the most common way is to prepare it with a thick batter consistency which yields thick pan cake. also the batter is mixed with finely chopped onions and tomatoes with optional ginger juliennes. some even prepare to top the veggies later while it is cooking rather than mixing it to batter. further, the other common variations is to prepare with a thin batter and the output would be very similar to south indian dosa. but i personally prefer the thicker version with a premixed veggies in the batter. it makes life very easy!
while the recipe is very simple with very basic ingredients, yet i would like to highlight few tips and suggestions for a perfect suji ka cheela recipe. firstly, add curd to enhance the flavour of chilla. also adding vegetables makes chilla more nutritional. furthermore, cook the chilla on medium flame, else the rava will not get cooked from inside.
