Scrub the daals. Make a paste let it rest for 6 to 7 hours and add little water. You may add a pinch of baking soda so the mixture increases somewhat and becomes soft and light.
Add salt and ginger paste and blend well. Add garlic paste, chopped green chilies, chopped coriander, and onions.
Beat well and add just a little water if you are feeling that the batter is too tight. (Must make sure that the batter isn't runny.)
Heat a pan, make oval contours of batter and set on the pan. Cover and cook 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook until they're crispy. Remove from fire and serve with chutney.
