Mix the sooji, onion, fresh cilantro, red chilli powder and salt in a large bowl, and add in enough water to form a slightly thinner pancake-like batter consistency. Set aside to rest for 10 minutes.
After the batter has had time to rest, give it a good mix and add in more water if necessary to get it to pouring consistency.
Heat a frying pan and add in a few drops of oil. Add about a 1/4 cup of the batter and spread evenly to form a thin round pancake.
Let it fry on one side until it starts to get crisp along the edges, before adding a couple more drops of oil and flipping to the other side. Fry until both sides are crisp and the pancake is cooked through.
Serve warm.
Notes
You can add in whatever veggies you fancy - carrots, zucchini and beets work extremely well, just remember to finely grate them.You want to make sure that the batter is not too chunky and can spread as easily and smoothly as possible.
