Ingredients

  • all purpose flour maida 2 cups

  • sugar ½ tsp
  • salt ½ tsp
  • baking powder ½ tsp
  • baking soda ½ tsp
  • yogurt 4 tbsp
  • water ½ cup
  • oil 2 tbsp

Instructions

Kneading the dough

  • You can either use a stand mixer with a dough attachment or knead with your hands.
  • Add flour, semolina, salt, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and give it a mix. Now add the oil and yogurt. Gradually add water and knead a dough that is neither too hard nor too soft to touch.
  • If using a stand mixer this process will take about 5-6 minutes on low speed. If kneading with hands knead about 7-8 minutes until the dough becomes soft and smooth.
  • Cover the dough with a wet cloth to prevent the dough from drying out or forming a skin and keep it aside for an hour in a warm dark place like your oven.
  • I prefer to keep it in the Instant Pot on Yogurt mode on Normal Heat for an hour.

Rolling the dough

  • Divide the dough into 10 equal parts and roll them into balls.
  • Take a dough ball and roll it evenly into an oval shape that it 10 inches long and 6 inches wide. Greasing the dough while rolling helps roll it easily.

Frying the Bhatura

  • Heat enough oil in a heavy bottom wok to deep fry the Bhatura.
  • Once the oil is hot reduce the heat from high to medium.
  • Now slide the bhatura into the hot oil carefully. Using a mesh ladle gently immerse the bhatura in oil until it starts to puff.
  • Flip the side and cook until golden brown.
  • Remove bhatura and place it on a kitchen towel to absorb excess oil.
  • Repeat the procedure for the remaining dough.
