Handvo is a savory vegetable and lentils cake originating from Gujarat, India. Traditional Handvo is made with lentils and grated bottle gourd along with spices. Now a days Handvo is made with any vegetable of your choice. I have added grated carrots, cabbage, bottle gourd and chopped cilantro. Once the batter is ready its either baked or cooked on tawa till done. Then temered with mustard, cumin , curry leave sand sesame seeds. This dish makes a wonderful snack or a filling dish which can be served at any time of the day. This savory cake can be served with ketchup or green chutney.

Very nicely done Handvo Sushma, I made a tawa version too and loved the crispy texture!
Perfectly done Handvo Sushma. It looks delicious.
I usually opt the baked version and have never tried the pan one. It has come out good, looks like a decked up dibba rotte.
This is the first time I made a pan handvo , its a super wuick version . And equally delicious . Yours has come out perfect !
The pan version certainly looks like a glorified Dibba rotte, right but it has a unique taste of its own. Love it.
I too made the pan version only. looks so delicious and healthy too with addition of dals and veggies
