* Now make 20 small balls out of the wheat flour dough and make dippreshion with your fingers(if you fry the balls round in sahape some times there are chances the balls will blast in the oil and also they don't cook properly in side so give a impreshion in the middle.)
* Deep fry this wheat balls in hot ghee in a low flame untill they become nice golden brown in color(here you can use normal cooking oil also for deep frying this balls but they don't taste like ghee).
* Now remove from the ghee and let them cool to handle, then make small pieces out of this balls with hand ans make apowder in the grinder or coffe grinder.
