2. Take the whole wheat flour in a mixing bowl or a large plate.
3. Now add the chopped spring onions along with the ginger-garlic paste, chopped green chillies, turmeric powder, red chilli powder, garam masala powder, carom seeds. You can add cumin seeds if you do not have carom seeds.
4. Also add salt as required and oil.
5. Mix the flour with the spring onions, spice powders, oil and salt.

8. Cover and let the dough to rest for 10 minutes.
