½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

  Rice Base:

4 Serve hot with spicy Achar or chutney.

Chatamari is crepe made out of rice floor and topped with chopped or ground red meat with seasoning. Chatamari is similar to South Indian Dosa. Dosa is thinner and crisper than Chatamari and Dosa is also rolled up and served with toping inside.

The presented recipe of Chatamari is an adapted recipe. The original recipe does not have eggs in the rice flour and the meat topping is not cooked separately. In the traditional recipe, the meat is cooked over the rice flour.

The most common problem with Chatamari is that it sticks on pan while making it. To find a new way to make Chatamari that does not stick on pan is featured here. Click here for recipe.
