INGREDIENTS

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 cup ghee (clarified butter)

Salt to taste

2-3 medium-sized onions (diced)

1 tsp chilly flakes

1 tsp oregano

METHOD

2. In a separate bowl, mix grated cheese, green chillies, bell peppers, onions, chilly flakes, oregano, and salt to taste to make the filling.

4. Fold the disc in half, seal the edges to form a crescent shape, and crimp with a fork or use a mould.
