Put the drained dal in a blender jar with the green chilli, ginger, cumin seeds, salt and half of the water (½ cup). Blend to a fine batter.
Pour the batter into a mixing bowl. Add the turmeric, rice flour and remaining water (½ cup), and mix well.
Stir in the red onion and cilantro, then rest the batter for 5 minutes.
Heat a pan on low-medium and lightly oil it. Pour ⅓ cup of batter and spread it into a 6-inch circle. Cook on medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes.
Add a few drops of oil, carefully flip the chilla, drizzle with oil on top and cook 2 to 3 minutes more, until light brown spots appear. Remove and repeat with the remaining batter.
