Method
👨🍳 First, we make the pancake batter. Then we prepare the filling.
Step 1
Take a bowl and add flour, turmeric powder, and salt (to taste). Mix well.
Step 2
Add the egg and water. Mix all the ingredients until smooth, with a slightly thick consistency.
Step 3
Add 3 ml of vanilla essence and mix again. Keep the batter aside for 15–20 minutes.
Step 4
Now prepare the filling. Heat a pan or non-stick pot, add sugar, and let it caramelize.
Step 5
Once the sugar is caramelized, add the grated coconut. Mix well, then add the roasted cardamom and cumin seeds. Stir until the mixture turns light brown.

Make thin pancakes with the batter, place some coconut filling inside, and roll them up.
