  • 1/2 Cup maida
  •  1 Cup ghee or clarified butter 
  • Salt to taste
  • Water to knead the dough


Method:

  • In a big bowl add the flours and salt and knead the dough using luke warm water.
  •  Make it into a pliable soft dough. Keep it covered and set aside for 20-30 minutes.

  • Dust the dough in dry atta.  Roll it into a big round chapathi.
  • Spread this with ghee evenly and sprinkle some atta on this.
  • Start making thin pleats out of this and twist the pleated dough. The more the pleats you will get more layers.
