- To a bowl add rice flour, besan, sooji, cumin seeds, sesame seeds, ajwain, hot oil and salt. Mix well and set aside. Boil 1 to 1.25 cups of water & to this add turmeric powder & red chilli powder. Mix well. Add the above liquid to the flour mixture & knead to a soft and pliable dough. Grease your palms and pinch a small ball of dough and place it on a flat surface. Use your palms to roll it into a thick rope. Now sprinkle the soaked chana dal & roll along so that they stick to the dough. Bring the ends together and press together to form a circle. Deep fry in oil over medium heat until light brown. Transfer to a plate and let it cool.
