✔️ *Batter consistency* = like pancake batter — thin enough to spread, not watery
✔️ *Pan temp* — medium-high heat for
crisp edges, low for even cooking
✔️ *Ghee on edges* = aromatic & crunch
✔️ *Serve IMMEDIATELY* with hot chutneys & aloo filling
✔️ *Extra crisp?* Add 1 tsp rice flour to batter before fermenting
