FAQS
Can I use all-purpose flour instead of wheat flour?
Yes, you can substitute wheat flour with all-purpose flour for a more traditional bhature texture.
Why is semolina added to the dough?
Semolina adds a slight crispiness to the bhature and helps in achieving a better texture.
How long should I rest the dough?
Rest the dough for at least one hour to allow it to rise slightly and become soft.
Can I make bhature without yogurt?
Yogurt helps in fermentation and softness, but you can substitute it with buttermilk or a mix of milk and lemon juice.
What oil is best for frying bhature?
Any neutral oil like vegetable oil or sunflower oil works well for frying bhature.
