Steps

1

In a bowl mix together onion and salt. Keep aside for 10-15 minutes. Then squeeze out the water. Knead a soft dough with the atta, salt, oil and required quantity of water. Keep aside for 20-25 minutes.
2

Mix the squeezed out onion along with all the other ingredients under stuffing and knead into a dough. Divide the dough into 4 equal portions too.
3

Roll out each portion into small circles like poori by dusting some flour. Take each poori and spread one portion of the onion stuffing. Cover with another rolled out poori.
4

Roll out further with the help of some more flour into a bigger circle just like chapatti. Do the same with the rest of the dough and stuffing.
