In a pan add 4 tsp of oil and saute ground paste till the water evaporates. After cooling divide the stuffing into uniform balls and keep it covered.

For the dough- In a wide bowl add maida flour little oil,salt,turmeric powder and little water and knead it little loose dough. Do not add the entire oil. Keep adding oil little by little till the dough doesn't stick to your palm. At last add the remaining over the dough and keep it covered for 3–4 hours till the dough absorbs the oil. Now take the dough and roll into balls and flatten it and place the stuffing and roll it into chapatis and cook on hot skillet till the brown spots appear.
