• Mix it really well and cook for couple of minutes until all moisture evaporates and make sure to stir constantly.

• Mix and knead it to a soft dough by adding little water at a time.
• Apply few drops of oil and cover with kitchen towel and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.

• Make 6 equal sized balls out of the dough and divide stuffing into 6 equal parts.

• Take one ball of the dough and roll it to form a small circle.

• Place one part of stuffing and fold the edges and gather them at the center and seal it properly.

• Dip into flour and roll it gently and evenly.

• Now Place it on a hot pan and roast it nicely from both the sides by applying little bit of oil.

• Serve it hot with plain yogurt and pickle.
