Bhatura
Time: 5 hrs 30 mins
Ingredients
- 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- salt (to taste)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/4 cup plain yogurt
- 1/2 cup warm water (approx)
- 1 tablespoon melted ghee
- 1 cup oil (for frying)
Directions
- 1 Sift the flour, salt and baking soda into a large bowl; beat the egg and add it to the flour with the sugar, yogurt and water.
- 2 Mix to a fairly soft dough, adding more water if necessary.
- 3 Add the ghee and knead the dough until it is smooth and pliable; put it back in the bowl, cover with a damp cloth and put in a warm place for about 4 hours to rise.
- 4 Knead the dough again and divide into ten balls; roll out each one on a greased board to a circle about 4 inches in diameter.
- 5 Heat the oil in a deep frying pan or wok and fry the bhaturas, one at a time turning them so that they tur that they turn pale golden on both sides; drain on paper towels and keep warm while you fry the remainder.
- 6 Note: This cookbook has a picture included of the bhaturas frying in a large deep frying pan that seems to contradict the instruction to fry one at a time.
- 7 In the picture all ten are frying at once.
- 8 My guess is that the instruction is meerly to make sure you have enough room to be able to turn them over and brown the other side.
- 9 The 5 hours prep time includes the 4 hours rising, and the 30 minutes cooking time is an approximation that will depend on how many you try frying at a time and how quickly they brown.
