dal in plenty of water till soft but not broken. Drain in a

a heavy saucepan and cook till a soft lump is formed Take care
to stir continuously, so as not to charr. Keep aside.

ghee with flour, add enough water to make a soft pliable dough.
Take a morsel sized ball of dough, roll into a 4" round.
Place same sized ball of filling in centre, life all round and
seal. Reroll carefully to a 6" diameter round. Roast on
warm griddle till golden brown.

the calorie level.
