- ½ teaspoon turmeric powder
- Pinch of red chilli powder
- 2 cups finely chopped and boiled cauliflower
- 1 ½ teaspoon Salt

In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and vegetable oil. Add the cumin seeds, turmeric powder and red chilli powder. Mix everything together until it forms a crumbly texture.

Cover the dough and let it rest for at least 10 minutes.
