Now divide the dough into 2 parts and make cylindrical shapes from it.

In a kadai, boil 2 cups of water, once water starts boiling, reduce the heat to low and add the cylindrical dough we had prepared. Cook covered for 7-8 minutes.

Once it is cooked (you will see bubbles on the gattas), turn off the heat , remove the ghattas from the water and let it cool.

Once the gattas cool, cut it into roundels and keep it aside. Do not discard the water in which it was cooked as we will be using it to make the gravy.
