Cooking Method

Preparing Panchmel Dal

Rinse the lentils thoroughly and soak them in water for at least 30 minutes. Drain and set aside.

In a large pot, combine the soaked lentils, 2 cups of water, and 1 tsp of ghee. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20-25 minutes or until the lentils are cooked.

Add cumin seeds, coriander powder, garam masala powder, and salt to taste. Stir well and continue to simmer for another 5-7 minutes.

Preparing Baati

In a large mixing bowl, combine wheat flour, salt, and 1 tsp of ghee. Mix well.

Gradually add lukewarm water to the mixture and knead for 5-7 minutes or until a smooth dough forms.

Divide the dough into small balls and shape each ball into a round baati. Place the baatis on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake the baatis in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.

Preparing Churma

In a large mixing bowl, combine wheat flour, sugar, and 1/2 cup of ghee. Mix well.

Add cardamom[1][2] powder and mix well.

Heat the mixture in a pan over low heat, stirring constantly, until it turns golden brown and fragrant.
