Curry Pancakes Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Combine the cumin seeds, mustard seeds, coriander, turmeric, cayenne, fennel seeds, and ginger in a small bowl. Stir well to blend.
• In a large sauté pan set over medium heat, heat the 1/4 cup oil. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are caramelized to a golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and add the spice mixture. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes to toast the spices. Transfer the mixture to a bowl. Add the yams, flour, egg, and salt, and mix well to combine. Form the mixture into cakes that are about 3 inches in diameter and 1/4 inch thick, and put them on a baking sheet.
• Set a skillet over medium-low heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Working in batches, sauté the cakes for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. They are done when they are a crispy golden brown and the sweet potato is cooked through.
• Serve warm, topped with the yogurt and scallions.
