Pesarattu are thin, savoury pancakes, similar to dosa, but requiring no fermentation. They are very easy and quick to make, and are nutritious as well as tasty. These lentil crêpes are a classic Andhra breakfast staple. I have given them a nutritious stuffing of spiced potatoes and cheese. Don’t just save them for mornings – they are terrific to enjoy for any meal!
