Cut the broccoli into florets. Clean the spinach leaves and cut the stems. Add broccoli and spinach leaves to a blender. Also add garlic cloves, green chillies and about 2-3 tbsp water. Blend to form a thick paste.
Take out the green paste in a bowl. Add besan, cumin powder, garam masala, black pepper powder and salt. Add water in batches and mix well to form a lump-free batter. The consistency of the batter should be medium- neither too thick nor too thin.
Now drizzle a few drops of oil on a non-stick tawa. Pour two ladleful of batter on it and spread in circular motions to make a round cheela. Cook from one side until golden patches appear. Flip towards the other side and cook until a bit crispy.
Serve the cheela with a chutney or dip of your choice. Enjoy!
You can add a filling of paneer or veggies in the cheela to make it more wholesome.
