Soak channa in 5 cups of water with 2 teaspoons of baking soda overnight.

Drain and rinse channa, then pressure cook in 4 cups of water for 40-50 minutes until tender.

In a large bowl, combine flour, yeast, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt.

Gradually add lukewarm water to the flour mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms.

Let the dough rest in a warm place until it rises.

Divide the dough into small balls and let rest for 15 minutes.

Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat for frying.

Flatten each dough ball into a disc and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.

In a separate pan, add cooked channa and season with turmeric, roasted ground geera, and salt, and cook for a few minutes.

Assemble by placing channa mixture between two fried baras and top with condiments.
