Ingredients
  

  • 1 Cup All purpose flour / Maida
  • Pinch of Salt
  • desi ghee required (or oil)
  • Water as per need

Instructions
 

  • Take maida and salt in a bowl.
  • Start adding water, little at a time, and keep stirring with hand, preferably, to avoid lumps.
  • If you feel that lumps are creating, just mash them with finger tips.
  • The batter should neither be thick not thin but having a running consistency.
  • To test whether the batter is of right consistency or not, take a spoon and dip it in the batter so that batter is coated on the spoon. Now with your finger tip, mark a line in the center of the back of spoon. if the line is clear and the batter remains stick to rest of the portion of spoon, your batter has a right consistency.
  • Put the batter on rest for about 15 minutes.
  • Take non stick tawa & place on low flame. Brush bit of desi ghee. You can also use oil.
  • Now drop the batter here and there with your hand making it like a net and preferably round in shape.
  • Drop some ghee on the spots which has turned dry. Avoid if not required. In a minute or two, you will find it drying turning from white to translucent. It will take a firm shape and very sooner you will feel that it has started leaving the tawa.
  • With the help of a spatula, gently lift the sides of kyur.
  • Lift the gheur carefully from tawa and transfer to some plate. Likewise make more gheur with the batter. Do note that gheur is made only from one side so don't flip them.
  • Kyur are ready. Serve with sugar which is the traditional method. Also add curd as a dip for adding more taste to your bites.

Notes

  1. If the consistency of your batter goes wrong, that can be easily adjusted. if the batter is too thick, add more water & if the batter has turned thin, add more maida. simple.
  2. Although it's very easily to make with hand but in any case you feel you are not comfortable with hands, take a clean squeezable tomato ketchup bottle & fill it with batter. You can use piping bag or any waste but clean bottle by making a hole in its lid and drop the batter on tawa. Earlier we have also tried this trick.
  3. Use of non stick tawa is highly recommended if wants to make gheur in very less ghee. You will have to add ghee in excess, if you are using other tawa or pan which is not non stick.
  4. As already mentioned, gheur is supposed to be cooked on one side only so do not flip it over.
