Soak split yellow lentils in water for 4-6 hours or overnight.

Pour a ladleful of batter into the pan, spreading it into a circle.

Cook until the edges lift and the bottom is golden, about 3-4 minutes.

Remove from the pan and keep warm while cooking the remaining batter.

Serve hot with lemon juice, chutney, or yogurt.
