2 tablespoons melted ghee |
oil, to deep fry |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, mix together the first six ingredients.
2. Add ghee.
3. Apply a little ghee on your palms and mix the mixture well so that it spreads evenly.
4. Add the required amount of water (about 1/2 cup) to this mixture so that it is thick and lumpy.
