Water - enough to make batter
Salt - to taste
For the filling:
Grated coconut - 1 cup
Sugar - to taste(around 1/2 cup or more depending on your taste)

Method:
Mix Maida and salt with enough water to form a thin batter.The batter should be thinner than dosa batter and without any lumps.Prepare the filling by mixing the grated coconut with sugar and crushed cardamom and keep aside.
Heat a non stick pan and smear it with oil .Pour a ladle full of batter and spread it on the pan .Let it cook until the sides start coming up .Flip and cook for another minute.
