-
Add flour in a wide mixing bowl.
-
Boil 1 Cup of water with onion/red chilli and garlic, cumin seeds and salt (Pic 1) when starts boiling, filter (Pic 2) and add it immediately to the flour.
-
The water should boil well if the filtered water is not hot enough again bring to boil.
-
Now make a well in the flour and pour the very hot/boiling water in batches (Pic 3).
-
Mix well with wooden spatula and when all flour gets the moisture, stop adding more water (Pic 4), check the below picture for the right consistency.
-
You may not need all water but depends on the boiling temp I have given extra quantity, for 1 1/2 cup of flour 3/4 Cup + 2 Tbsp of water is what I exactly used).
-
The right consistency is the flour changes color/wet enough and need be rolled together like a chapati dough (Pic 5).
-
Now when you knead with your palms it should gather well without any crack/breaks(pic 5)...
-
By this time the flour will be half cooked (Pic 1, step wise picture below) and dough should not be gooey..
-
Add .5 tsp oil, You can rest the dough or press it when they are warm (easy to press) , either way works...
