Heat a cast iron pan with a splash of oil over medium heat. When the oil shimmers, add a couple pinches of sesame seeds and pour about a quarter cup of the batter over the oil and sesame seeds. Spread out the batter a little to form a pancake.
Let cook until the first side is golden brown. Flip the pancake and cook the other side for a little bit.

A more traditional version of this would be made with Dudhi (bottle gourd). For the dudhi version, just use dudhi in place of zucchini (equal amount).
