Step-by-Step Instructions

1

Boil split bengal gram until soft, drain water completely, and mash with jaggery in a pan over medium heat until dry and thick to form puran; mix in cardamom powder.

2

Knead all-purpose flour, turmeric powder, salt, oil, and water into a soft, elastic dough; rest submerged in oil for 1 hour.

3

Enclose a ball of puran filling inside an outer layer of dough, seal, and roll flat carefully into a thin disc.

4

Roast on a hot griddle, applying generous amounts of ghee on both sides until golden brown spots appear.

5

Serve warm with extra ghee.
