Servings 4 people
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All purpose flour/maida/Plain flour (225 g)
- 1.5 cups whole wheat flour (187 g)
- 1/2 cup curd/yogurt
- 1 tbsp oil
- 1 tbsp fine sooji/semolina

Instructions
- In a wide vessel take the flours and add the salt, sugar, baking soda and oil. Mix well till it ressembles bread crumbs
- Next add the curd, and mix that also very well. Add water as needed to make a sticky dough. I needed 3/4 cup of water.
- Once the all the flour has been mixed well add the semolina and knead for at least 5-7 minutes. You can use your stand mixer also for this.
- When the dough becomes soft apply a layer of oil all over and let it sit for 3-4 hours, to ferment.
- After 3 hours, knead the dough for a few minutes, divide into balls as per your desired size. Roll out evenly and deep fry in oil until golden brown.
- Serve it with Chole.
