The thinner it is the more complex it is: the batter and the tawa — a complex relationship indeed. However, mastering a tawa made with triply material is beginner-friendly!

Perfection is right under your nose with the following tips —

1. Choose the Right Tawa

Go for a relatively larger tawa surface (ideally flat and wide) so that you can spread the batter as thinly as possible.

2. Preheat Properly

Preheating is necessary as it dries out any excess water onto the pan that might spill when it comes in contact with oil. Moreover, a tawa when heated well prevents 

3. Season the Tawa

4. Temperature Control

When we say the tawa should be hot, we don’t mean fuming hot. Sprinkle a few drops of water to see if they instantly sizzle and evaporate.

Keep on adjusting the heat as and when required. Do a drop test. Put one spoon of batter in the pan. If the batter browns too fast it means the pan is overheated.

5. Batter Consistency

6. Spreading the Batter

To perfect the level of thinness spread the batter with a ladle in the middle of the pan and spread it inside out on the tawa in a circular motion. By this method, you will be able to regulate the evenness of the spread batter.

7. Oil Application

8. Cooking Time

Allow your crepe or omelet to cook properly on medium heat. When cooked well the edges will lift and then you can flip it with a spatula. Do not flip multiple times, it might damage the crepe.

  3. If batter sticks use a bit more oil.

  4. If the crepe is not crispy enough, cook a bit more on low heat.

  5. Each stove is different, so experiment with heat levels to find your ideal level.
