Zunka-bhakri/zunka-bhakar is a famous maharashtrian dish.Zunka is basically besan which is tempered with ingredients to make it spicy.Although it goes well with bhakri, I personally don't like bhakri so I prefer phulkas/chapati.You can also add methi leaves to zunka which gives a nice flavour to it.This is a perfect dish if you have not planned your menu or don't have much ingredients available in your pantry :)

gramflour/besan(1cup)
onion(1 medium)

Method -
Take besan in a bowl and add water to it.Make it like a dosa batter.
Cut onion length wise and green chillies.
Heat oil in a non-stick pan.
Add the onion and chillies and saute.
After a min add haldi,mirchi,dhaniya and jeera powder.
Now add the besan batter and more water if necessary.
