For kneading dough
Take all the ingredients except melted ghee to a big bowl and knead the dough adding water slowly. Keep it aside for 5-7 minutes
Now pinch the dough for one bafla(slightly bigger than the roti) and keep kneading till you get a smooth ball of dough. Can use ghee while kneading it in palms. Press gently in the middle and keep aside Similarly make all battis like this.
For Making Bafla Batis:
Heat water in deep pan. Add turmeric powder and let it come to boil. Drop the rolled batis and let it boil for 5 minutes. Turn the heat to medium.
Cover and cook for 10-12 minutes or til they float on the top.(Gently, keep stirring occasionally, to ensure that batis dont stick to the bottom). Drain out with a slotted spoon to remove excess water. Let them get dry. They will be done when battis come up and float on the water.
For Baking in Oven:
Preheat oven to 175C Arrange baatis in a baking tray. Bake for 25-30 mins or until they top turn lightly golden in colour. Use a kitchen towel and press hot slightly with your palm.
Dont press it so hard, we just want to crack them slightly. Soak cracked in ghee for few seconds, and drain on an absorbent paper. Keep aside. Baatis are ready.
