To make the masala
In a pan, melt butter and add cumin. Then add finely chopped onion, garlic, ginger and green chillies. Add salt, turmeric, red chilli powder, garam masala powder and cumin powder. Once the masala cools down, add it to the prepared and risen dough. Knead the masala into the dough for two-three minutes to incorporate the masala. Don’t knead it too much.
Divide the dough into four parts as it will give us four loaves.
With the back of your palm, tightly roll and press the dough to shape it.
In a baking tray, add the loaves and let it remained covered with a wet cloth for 45 minutes.
After 45 minutes, the dough should have doubled in size. Then milkwash.
Bake in a pre-heated oven at 180 degrees for 30-40 minutes.
Once done, take them out and add butter.
Let the bread loaves come to room temperature before cutting them down.
Enjoy with tea!
