  1. 1 Knead the atta flour with salt, ghee butter, and water until it forms a firm dough, harder than chapati dough.
  2. 2 Cover tightly and let the dough rest for 20 minutes.
  3. 3 Divide the dough into small pieces, roll them into circles about 2 mm thick, and instead of sprinkling with dry flour, lightly grease them with oil.
  4. 4 Heat the oil until very hot, drop the dough into it, and press gently and repeatedly until the dough puffs up into a round shape.
  5. 5 Fry each side for 30 seconds until lightly golden, then remove, drain, and eat immediately while still puffed up.
