Plain low-fat yogurt91.3 g

Olive oil4.6 g

Fresh ginger and green chili paste (for flavoring)6.3 g

Honey (for glaze/sweetness)0.5 g

Instructions

Whisk the chickpea flour with yogurt, ginger-chili paste, and a pinch of turmeric until smooth. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes.

Stir in a tiny pinch of fruit salt or baking soda to activate the batter, causing it to bubble and aerate.

Pour the batter into a small, greased shallow container and steam over boiling water for 12-15 minutes until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.

Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a small pan, add a pinch of mustard seeds until they pop, then drizzle over the warm, spongy steamed cake.

Finish with a light drizzle of honey-water and fresh cilantro. Serve warm as a light, savory, and tangy tea-time bite.
