Many recipes call for maida, which is similar to cake flour. Some also call for some whole wheat flour. I'm trying with just all-purpose flour. You could also use try 1/2 cup mashed potatoes to replace part of the flour and the leavening / fermenting agents. Some recipes also call for a little bit of semolina or rice flour.
Recipe
- Mix dry ingredients.
- Add yogurt. Knead and slowly add warm water (if necessary) to form dough.

- Divide the dough into 12 equal portions, roll them into balls, and cover.
