Ingredients
- to taste wheat flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tsp ghee
- to taste water
Steps
- Mix the wheat flour and salt together.
- Add the ghee and mix well so that there are no lumps and the ghee is evenly absorbed.
- Add water in small amounts and knead well until the dough becomes soft and pliable.
- When the dough is ready, form the dough into balls and roll them flat.
- Keep it slightly thick, unlike a bhatoora which is rolled to be very thin.
- Place the rolled batooru on a clean cloth and cover them with another moist cloth.
- Leave them covered overnight.
- The next morning, take the batooru out from cloth and shallow fry them like a parantha.
- Serve them hot, especially with sabzi (spicy cooked vegetables), lassi, and mango pickles.
