Prepare the dough by mixing 6 cups of all purpose flour, 2 tsp. baking powder, 2 tsp. sugar, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 2 tbsp. oil, then add water to form a soft dough.

For the dhal filling, cook 1.5 cups of dhal with water until soft, then blend with 3 hot peppers, 6-8 cloves of garlic, 1 tsp. dye (tumeric), and salt to taste until smooth.

Divide the dough into equal portions and roll into balls.

Flatten each ball and place a spoonful of the dhal filling in the center.

Fold the dough over the filling and seal tightly.

Roll out the filled dough gently to maintain the shape.

Heat extra oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Fry each Dhalpuri until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
