Savory Yellow Lentil Crepes
When I was in Hong Kong, one day morning in search of vegetarian breakfast I came across one local food joint serving savoury Korean Pancakes called Bindaedok, which was very much similar to our Moon Dal Cheela and when I asked him about the preparation, in some third world language he explained to me that it has moong dal and eggs, back home I googled for the recipe and got to know Bindaedok's whole preparation is similar to Moon Dal Cheela except an egg and rice is added to prepare the batter, though I have not tried it at home yet but now I have been reminded of Bindaedok, so hope to post the recipe soon.
