Roll half of the dough out like a roti (1 cm thick) and cut into rectangle or diamond shapes (use plain flour on your rolling surface/@rotiboxofficial).Grease the palms of your hands with butter and roll the other half of the dough into moothia (gulab jamun shapes).
Method for the sauce:1.) Cook onions in ghee (Clarified butter) in a non stick pot until golden brown then add the petit pois, salt, chilli, arad (Turmeric), ginger, garlic and cook for a approx 5-7 minutes (toovar and peas will take double/triple the approx time to cook).2.) Add the 4 cups of boiled water and bring the mixture to a rapid boil, add in the moothia said and continue to boil on medium heat until moothias are cooked through (approx 15-20mins), then add in the dough that was mixed with cold water and stir everything together gently, simmer on low heat for approx 10 minutes, add 3 tblspns butter and remove from the stove.Garnish and serve hot - on its own OR* with lemon wedges *OR with cold milk poured over the top, plain naan or roti.
