1 c Whole Wheat Flour

2/3 c Water

1 tb Melted Butter Or Ghee

Place the flours in a bowl, add enough of the water to make a soft

pliable dough. Add the melted butter, knead until smooth. Cover the

bowl with a damp cloth, leave in a warm place for one hour. Divide

into 16 pieces and, using a little oil on the hands, shape into balls. Grease the rolling pin and board with oil, roll each ball

into a thin pancake. Heat the ghee until smoking hot, place a puri

until golden. Drain on absorbent paper, serve as soon as possible.
