  1. Take hung yogurt in a large parat, add red chilli powder, cumin powder, garam masala powder, turmeric powder, salt, green cardamom powder, dried mint powder, roasted dried fenugreek leaves, green chilli paste, ginger-garlic paste, fresh cream and mustard oil and mix well.
  2. Add Kashmiri red chilli paste and roasted gram flour and mix well.

  4. Take a hot piece of charcoal in a small stainless steel bowl. Place it in the centre of the chaaps and drizzle ghee. Sprinkle cloves and immediately cover the parat and let the smoky flavour infuse for 2 minutes. Remove the bowl and keep the chaaps aside to marinate for 10-15 minutes.
