Bhathura... I know many versions of bathura but I find that this is the easiest one. Ingrs... 2 cups maida (refined flour) 2 tblsps sooji /(rawa)/ semolina soaked in 2 tblsps of water . 2 tblsps curds (dahi)yoghurt salt 1/4 tsp soda bicarb warm water as required Method -mix all ingredients n knead to a smooth dough .let it rest for atleast 1/2 an hour covered wth a muslin cloth. Now make dough balls,roll into puris/bhathura n deep fry . when u put the bathura in the oil it puffs up .at that very moment flip it ,then decrease the flame n fry till done. take it out in a strainer so tat the extra oil drips off .Do send the feedback if u try this recipe .Ask questions if any thru message on my page.
