Bhatura

Bhatura is generally served with cholas. Chole Bhature is one of the most famous Punjabi dishes loved by all. 

Ingredient

• 2cups all purpose flour (Maida)
• 2tsp Semolina (Sooji)
• Pinch of Baking Powder
• 3tsp Yogurt
• Oil to deep fry
• Salt to taste

Method

1. To prepare dough mix all the above ingredients in a bowl and add water slowly to it. Add water as required and prepare a soft dough of it.
2. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and leave it for 1 hour.
3. Now divide the dough into small equal parts and roll them off just like you do for paratha's. Make the size of bhatura's of your own choice.
4. Now heat the oil in a pan on high flame.
5. Check in between whether the oil is ready. Take a small piece of dough and put it into pan. It should come up immediately but should not turn brown. If it turns brown then let the oil cool down little bit.
6. Now when your oil is ready set flame on medium heat put rolled bhatura's in the pan and deep fry it. Cook it from both side.
7. Now serve it hot with Cholas, onion, mix pickle and lemon.

Tip

• Its not necessary to add semolina to it. It is simply added to make bhatura's more crispy. If you don't like crispy bhatura's you can skip semolina.
• There should be enough oil for frying bhatura's. If its less then you won't get nice bhatura's. Bhatura's should properly get deep fried. The oil should cover bhatura completely.
