The Maharashtrian ghavan is a unique pancake made of a quick and easy rice flour batter. It takes just a few minutes to mix the ingredients into a batter and there is no need to ferment either.

The secret to getting the perfectly-textured quick chawal ka atta ghavan lies in the consistency of the batter, which must not be very thin or thick.

If you get the batter of a proper dropping consistency, you will get nice and spongy ghavans.
