Curry Scented Pancakes Food

CURRY-SCENTED PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine curry powder and 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons boiling water; set aside.
• In a food processor, combine flour and salt. Turn processor on; slowly add curry-powder-water mixture. Process until dough comes together and is smooth and not tacky when pinched, about 30 seconds. Loosely cover with plastic wrap; let stand for 15 minutes.
• Heat oven to 250 degrees. Form dough into a 17-inch-long log and cut into 12 equal pieces; cover with plastic wrap so dough is not exposed to air. Place 1 piece of dough cut side down on a work surface, flatten slightly, and brush with sesame oil. Place another slightly flattened piece of dough on top of first; press together. Roll joined disks into a 6 1/2-inch-diameter circle less than 1/8 inch thick.
• Heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the double pancake and cook until light-golden speckles appear on the surface, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from pan and gently pull pancakes apart. Transfer pancakes to a plate and cover with plastic wrap. Repeat entire process with remaining dough. Wrap cooked pancakes in foil; place in oven to rewarm, 5 to 10 minutes.

Reduce heat to low and continue cooking and stirring until onion is very tender and dark brown, about 20 minutes more. Stir in garlic and ginger, and continue cooking for 1 minute.
• Reduce heat to low, stir in chopped serrano chiles, and cook for an additional minute. Sprinkle in the red chile powder, cumin, coriander, garam masala, and turmeric; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Pour in tomato puree and ketchup; thin with water to desired consistency. Stir in the paneer and peas; cook to soften peas, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in cream, and increase heat to medium-high. Allow the curry to come to a rolling boil, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Garnish with cilantro.
