11. Then add ghee/melted butter on 2-3 spots and turn it on
12. Cook for few more minutes and remove
13. Immediately wrap it in a kitchen tissue and Serve hot with your favorite side dish !!!
Note:
1. If not able to form a dough with step 2 and 3, use milk enough to form a dough. Do not use water
2. Check for the side dish in my post 'Palak Paneer' that goes well with this!
