For making the palak chilla, you need to take some finely chopped spinach leaves. Make sure you wash it thoroughly. Take a bowl, add finely chopped onions, tomatoes and red bell peppers, coriander leaves, turmeric powder, ginger-garlic paste, some carom seeds and salt. Mix everything together using your hands. Now, add some protein-rich besan. The chickpea flour is a treasure of protein. Protein helps build muscle, and also plays a crucial role in healthy weight management. Add some water into the mix and bring it to a pouring consistency. Heat a tawa or pan with some oil, and splash some of the mix on top. Toss it on the other side, once it is done. Make sure to serve it hot.
