Tomato Omelette - protein packed vegetarian dish 

Quantity - 6 medium omeletts 

Ingredients -

Tomatoes - 3 medium size 
Green chillies -3/4 as per spics
Garlic pods - 6/7
Besan flour - 1 cup 
Water - 1/3 cup or as required 
Fresh coriander - few strands
Haldi - 1 tsp
Hing - a pinch 
Jeera - 1 tsp 
Salt as required 

Procedure-

1.  Chop the tomatoes and deseed them . We need to grind tomatoes with other ingredients to make smooth batter for this omelette
2. In mixer , add chopped tomatoes , garlic pods roughly chopped , green chillies roughly chopped , fresh coriander roughly chopped , jeera seeds , haldi , hing .
3. Grind this to a smooth paste without adding any water . Mix well and grind again to ensure that there are no pieces of garlic/chillies etc remaining .
4. Now in the same mixture add besan flour and mix well . Water from tomatoes is enough to mix besan to the ground mixture . Add little water and continue grinding . After first round of grinding , add 1/3 cup water and grind into smooth batter without any lumps
5. Remove batter from mixer and add salt to it . Mix well and keep it ready for pouring on tawa
6. Heat tawa for making omelette . Once tawa is hot enough , pour ladle full of batter on it and spread like dosa . You can either make it thin and crispy or bit thick as per your liking . I like thin and crispy . Sprinkle some oil to allow it to cook . Cook nicely till it becomes light brown and appears cooked from both sides .

Serve hot with tup and either homemade mint chutney or coconut chutney or your favorite pickle or molagai podi  :)
