Boil the soaked chana dal until soft, then drain thoroughly. Mash the dal using a potato masher or food processor until smooth.



In a pan, combine the mashed dal with jaggery and cardamom powder. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens into a dry, spreadable paste. Let it cool completely.




Divide the dough and the filling into equal portions. Flatten a dough ball, place a portion of the filling in the center, and seal the edges to form a stuffed ball. Roll it out carefully into a thin circle using a rolling pin.

Heat a tawa or griddle over medium heat. Place the rolled flatbread on the hot surface and cook until golden brown spots appear on both sides, brushing with ghee as needed.
