Can This be warmed in the oven if it's frozen?
Kushi says
Yes, you can!
Julie S says
Made this today using my bread maker and it turned out very well, I used Ghee instead of oil.
Great recipe that I have already passed on to others, thanks very much.
Kushi says
Thank you so much Julie 🙂
Louise says
Can it be made ahead? Before frying?
Kushi says
Yes, you can. If you plan to fry it in 3-4 hours then you can roll the breads, and stack them by placing a parchment paper between each and then cover completely using a dry and clean kitchen towel to prevent it from drying up. You can also freeze if you prefer. I think either way parchment paper is the key as it prevents the rolled flat breads from sticking to one another.

This is a terrific, simple recipe. I have changed it ever so slightly by using about a third quantity of Gram flour and using gram flour to dust the surfaces when I'm rolling out the discs. My family love these.
Kaiya says
This was fantastic! I never knew how easy this was to make, I think I'll be having it with every meal now 😀 I've made slightly too much dough though, is there a good way to store it? Thanks for the great recipe!!
Kushi says
Thank you so much. I am glad you liked it. Wrap it in plastic wrap and place it in refrigerator. Use it in a day or 2. Thaw for half an hour before rolling. However, it tastes best when its fresh 🙂
Kaiya says
Thank you so much! I usually do prefer it fresh, but I've been very busy with university and it's a nice treat to look forwards to after a long day 🙂
