Preparing the Crepes/Dosas

Begin by mixing your batter, using either a traditional crepe recipe with flour, eggs, and milk, or a dosa batter with soaked and ground rice and lentils for a gluten-free option. Cook them on a hot non-stick skillet until golden brown, flipping once.

Cooking the Chicken

Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and any additional spices of your choice. Cook in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked through, usually about 7-10 minutes on each side, depending on thickness. Slice for serving.

Preparing the Vegetables

Wash and slice the cucumber into thin rounds. Grate the carrot using a box grater or food processor.
