Ingredients

  • 2 tsp: Chana dal, soaked in water for 2 hours
  • 1 1/2 cups: Wheat flour (aata), sieved
  • 1/2 cup: Gram flour (besan)
  • 1 no: Onion, grated
  • 1 tsp: Ginger-garlic paste
  • 1/2 cup: Coriander leaves
  • 1 tsp: Chilli powder

  • 1/2 tsp: Turmeric powder
  • Oil for frying
  • Salt to taste

Directions

1

Mix both flours, all powdered spices, ginger-garlic paste, onion, coriander leaves and salt. Knead into a stiff dough, adding water as needed and a little oil. Make 12 equal-sized balls.

2

Lightly oil the palms and pat each ball into a 10 cms disc, spreading a little chana dal on each side while patting, so that the dal sticks to both sides of the discs.

3

Heat oil and fry each disc till golden.

4
