Bihari Litti

1 cup sattu ( made by grinding roasted dalia or black chana)
1 lemon or 4 spoons of lemon juice
3 to 4 green chillies
1 onion
3 cloves of garlic
10 pcs of whole black pepper or 1/2 spoon of ground
1/4 spoon of kalonji
4 scoops of wheat flour

Steps

1. Cut and chop in very small pieces the onion, garlic, and green chillies.
2. In a bowl, mix the sattu, the onion, garlic, chillies, kalonji and lemon juice. Put salt to taste. Mix with incremental amount of water, till it becomes like a fluffy and separable mixture. Sample some to make sure it tastes good to your taste.
2. Make the dough out of wheat flour like you make it for roti or stuffed paratha. Put little oil in the dough to make it soft. Make 10 separate pieces of dough balls.
3. Flatten on your palm one ball and shape it like a thick bowl. Fill the bowl with the sattu mixture. Close the bowl with the itself and make it round or whatever shape it finally gets into.

There are two ways to cook.
1. Deep fry several suuffed lilli balls at a time on medium heat. Once they turn light brown and somewhat showing signs of cracks, take them out.
2. You can bake it in oven at 375 F for about half an hour. You may have to oil it once a while so that it does not become too dry. After they are done, you could put some oil or margarine on the balls to make them mostened.

It is usually eaten with Alu bharta, Baigan Bharta, Youghert and Papad.
