- Knead the dough to make a circle. Now, apply ghee on the opposite sides of the dough and then fold it. - Repeat the process 3-4 times, the idea is to spread the ghee in layers in the dough. Repeat the process for one more time. Folding the dough will give you flaky layers.
- After that knead the dough and put it on a plate or dash in such a way that you can easily cut the pieces of dough with a knife. (you can take sizes of the dough as per your liking) - Now, take one piece of the dough in your hand, pinch sides of the dough and make a round ball of it.
