Add 0.5 teaspoon of red chili flakes and 0.5 teaspoon of mixed herb seasoning, and mix well.

Optionally, add finely chopped vegetables like onions and capsicums and a little fresh coriander.

After resting, knead the dough again briefly and divide it into small portions.

10

Roll one portion into a thin sheet, brushing with butter or ghee.
