      Hi aarthi. It looks good but my question is, how can u make another sarva pindi,?? when the tawa is hot. When u put ur first one, it would not be hot ofcourse, so that u can apply the dough and put holes on it. pls reply

        You must use two pans
        It’s a Telangana old traditional dish
        And you can use heavy bottom cookware like old style utensils

      Oh wow! This is amazing. A savory pancake? Unlike the sweet ones that we make in the U.S. I love the thought of serving it with chutney. I think my boys will love this. Thanks for the post.

      I think in telugu this is called as karem rotte. This is one of the best Indian recipes guide. Thanks for sharing. Best platform for learners for those who are trying to learn how to cook.

      Dear author,
      This recipe "Sarva Pindi" is from Telangana state of India not Andhra dish.
      In ANDHRA it is called as Tapala chekka
