Description - Step 1

Creating the Dough

Place a wok or pan on medium heat. Add the water. As the water heats up, add chilli flakes, sesame seeds, chopped coriander, salt, and 1 tbsp of oil. Let this come to a simmer. Lower the heat and slowly pour in the Semolina (Suji) while stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Keep stirring until the mixture absorbs all the water and comes together as a soft, singular lump (dough-like consistency). This takes about 2-3 minutes. Remove the dough from the pan and place it on a flat surface/plate. Let it cool slightly (warm to the touch, not hot). Grease your hands with oil, then knead for 1-2 minutes until smooth and pliable.
