Blend it in mixer. Make a coarse paste. Take out from the mixer vessel, into the bowl, now add coriander, ajwain, water and baking soda. Mix well. The consistency of the mixture should be like dosa.  Take fry pan, heat on a medium flame. Apply oil evenly on fry pan. Pour the mixture on fry pan, spread evenly. Keep medium flame.

Tip
U can add more chilies as per your taste
U can add 1 big size tomato in the mixer while blending. If tomato is added then to make batter u need to add less water, because tomato contains water.
