Serving: 4-6 people
Difficulty: Easy
Preparation time: 10 minutes + at least 30 minutes setting time
Cooking time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:
2 cups plain flour
1 egg
Salt to taste
1 onion – sliced
2 spring onions – sliced finely.
Water

Method:

1. In a bowl, place the flour and make a well in the centre. Put the egg and salt, then add water slowly as you bind the flour, egg and salt into a batter.

2. Make up with water for a runny consistency, then add the onion and spring onions. For a spicier flavour, add sliced chillies. Allow the batter to rest for about 30 minutes.

3. Heat up a griddle, oil it and pour over it half a cupful of batter. Cook until the batter thickens and resembles pancake. Flip the bread, then fold in two. Serve hot with the chicken curry.
