original Indian recipe (brought along)

Place the sugar and yeast in a small bowl and mix with the warm water. Let this mixture rise for about 10 minutes, until bubbles form. Put the flour in a large bowl and make a well in the center, add the ghee and salt, and pour in the yeast. Stir with a wooden spoon until you have a smooth dough. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 6 minutes. Return the bread dough to the bowl, cover, and let rise for another 1 1/2 hours. Knead the dough again for 2 minutes, then divide it into 6-8 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and flatten it into a round, approximately 1 cm thick, flattened patty with a diameter of about 12 cm. Preheat the oven to the highest setting. Place the patties on greased aluminum foil and bake for 7-10 minutes, turning them twice. Brush with butter and sprinkle with black cumin seeds. Serve warm immediately or wrap in aluminum foil to keep warm.
