Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk
- 1 cup Plain yogurt
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 cup Warm water
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0 as needed Oil for frying
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, psyllium husk, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.
Step 2
Add the plain yogurt to the dry ingredients. Mix until the dough starts to come together.
Step 3
Slowly add warm water, a little at a time, and knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. You may not need the entire 0.5 cup of water; it depends on the humidity and absorption rate of the ingredients.
Step 4
Cover the dough with a cloth and let it rest for about 10 minutes to allow the psyllium husk to absorb moisture and bind the dough.
Step 5
Once rested, divide the dough into 8 equal-sized balls.
Step 6
On a flat surface, use a rolling pin to flatten each ball into a disc about 6 inches in diameter. Use a piece of parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking while rolling.
Step 7
Heat oil in a deep fryer or a large saucepan over medium-high heat. The oil should be about 350°F (175°C). Test the oil by dropping a small piece of dough; it should sizzle immediately and rise to the surface.
Step 8
Carefully slide one bhatura into the hot oil. Gently press the top with a slotted spoon to help it puff up. Fry until golden brown on both sides, approximately 1-2 minutes per side.
Step 9
Remove the bhatura from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Step 10
Repeat the frying process with the remaining dough discs. Serve hot with chole or your favorite curry.
