A quick and easy breakfast / snack recipe of chilla made with Rava (Sooji or Creame of wheat). Usually chillas are savory pancakes made from gram flour or lentils. I made chillas from rava also known as sooji or semolina. These chillas are crispy outside and soft inside and very easy to prepare. We make these the same way like bean chilla, oats chilla, ragi chilla, bakri chilla and only ingredient that gets replaced is besan, oats, ragi instead rava. Chillas can be served with any chutneys, sambar and tomato ketchup also goes well.
Rava / Sooji has more health benefits as improves heart health, Keeps bones and nervous system healthy, Prevents anemia, boosts energy, rich in iron, also it contains no cholesterol. It helps for weight loss as semolina takes a long time to digest which keeps you full for a long time so by eating semolina in your breakfast can take one step forward to lose weight.

Rava / Sooji - 1 cup
Curd - 1/2 cup
Grated carrot - 3 tsp
