Helpful hints

Use batter immediately for best results.
Curious about unfamiliar ingredients?
- Ghee is clarified butter.
- Paneer is a South Asian cheese widely used in Indian cuisine. It is made by curdling milk with lemon juice or acid and is similar to cottage cheese or queso blanco. Substitute cottage cheese if paneer is unavailable.
- Farina, sold under the name Cream of Wheat®, is the same as semolina.
