Indian Red Lentil Flatbreads (Dhal Paratha)

Instructions

• 1
  Place the red lentils in a bowl, cover with water, and let them soak for approximately 8 hours (ideally overnight).
• 2
  After soaking, drain the lentils and rinse them well under cold running water. Place the lentils in a blender, add 180 ml of water, one tablespoon of oil, and one-third of a teaspoon of salt. Blend everything until you get a smooth and homogeneous batter.
• 3
  Heat a medium-sized non-stick pan (approximately 20 cm in diameter) over medium heat, without adding any fat. Reduce the heat to low-medium and prepare 4 flatbreads one by one: pour a quarter of the mixture into the pan and cook for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden.

  Serve the flatbreads warm, immediately after preparation, or store them in the refrigerator and consume within 2–3 days.
