Method

1. Preheat oven at 180°C. Place a silicon sheet on a baking tray.
2. Combine refined flour, salt and butter in a bowl. Mix well and rub them to resemble bread crumbs. Add ¼ cup chilled water slowly and knead well into a stiff dough. Set aside.
3. Heat oil in a non-stick pan. Add cumin seeds, green chillies, garlic and sauté till the garlic turns golden.
4. Add onion and sauté well.
5. Dust dough with little flour and roll out into a large thin sheet. Take a cookie cutter, a size larger than a 4 inch steel katori and cut out 4 discs from the dough sheet.
6. Add turmeric powder in the pan and mix well. Add red chilli powder, coriander powder, salt and mix well.
7. Add tomatoes, toss and cook till the oil leaves the sides of the pan.
8. Roll out the leftover dough again into a large sheet and using the 4 inch katori, cut out 4 more discs from it.
9. Grease four 4 inch katoris with little butter and dust with little flour. Line the katoris with the second batch of discs pressing well. Prick the inside with a fork.
10. Add soyabean granules and ¼ cup water in the pan. Mix well and cook further.
11. Add chopped mint, chopped coriander and ginger and mix well. Cook till fully done.
12. Roll out leftover dough into a sheet and cut thin strips from it.
13. Fill the lined katoris with the cooked soyabean mixture and cover with the first batch of dough discs pressing at the edges to seal. Apply little water on top and place the dough strips on top to make a mat design.
14. Brush little butter on top of the pies and place the katoris on the baking tray and put the tray in the preheated oven. Bake for 16-18 minutes or till the crust turns golden.
