How to Make Sabudana Pancakes -
Ingredients

Sabudana – 1 cup (soak for 2 hours and rinse thoroughly)
Boiled and mashed potato or sweet potato – 1
Grated paneer – 1 cup
Green coriander – a handful (finely chopped)
Green chili – 1 (finely chopped)
Ginger – a small piece (finely chopped)
Roasted peanuts – a handful (crushed)
Salt – 1 teaspoon (fasting rock salt is best)
Black pepper – 1 teaspoon (ground)
Ghee or oil – for frying

Method
Step 1: Prepare the sabudana
First, take 1 cup of sabudana and soak it in water for 2 hours. Then, drain and rinse thoroughly to remove any stickiness and make the sabudana light and soft.

Step 2: Mix the Potato and Paneer
Now, put the sabudana in a large bowl. Add one boiled and mashed potato or sweet potato. Add 1 cup of grated paneer. This mixture will help bind the pancakes and enhance their flavor.

Step 3: Add Flavoring
Now, add a handful of chopped coriander leaves, one green chili, and finely chopped ginger. These will add a slight spiciness and fresh flavor to the pancakes.

Step 4: Peanuts and Spices
Lightly roast and crush a handful of peanuts and add them to the mixture. Peanuts make the pancakes crunchy and healthy. Add 1 teaspoon of rock salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper and mix well.

Step 5: Prepare the Dough
Mix all the ingredients and knead them into a dough. Roll them into small balls and then press them into pancakes with your palms. If desired, you can apply a little ghee or oil to grease your hands.

Step 6: Bake in the Pan
Heat a non-stick pan and pour a little ghee into it. Bake the pancakes until golden and crisp on both sides. Cook each pancake for about 2-3 minutes.

Serving Suggestion
Serve hot sabudana pancakes with yogurt, green chutney, or mint-coriander dip. You can also eat them with fruit salad or coconut chutney.

Special Tips
If you're making this for children, reduce the amount of chili.
To make the pancakes even healthier, you can add some grated carrot or bottle gourd.

Make a large batch of pancakes at a time, store them in the refrigerator, and bake them immediately when needed.

This sago pancake will add both taste and health to your diet during Navratri.
