Method:

Mix together the flour, salt, black pepper and sugar in a bowl

Rub in the ghee with your fingers until it is thoroughly blended with the flour
Make a well in the center of the flour and pour in 1 cup water little by little, mixing to make stiff dough

Work the dough well with your hands, then cover with a damp cloth and set aside for 15 minutes

Divide the dough into 20 pieces and cover once more with the damp cloth

Work with one piece at a time, keeping the rest covered

While oil is heating in your deep fryer or wok to about 350 f, roll each piece of dough into a smooth ball, apply a little oil to each dough ball, then using a rolling pin, roll out into a disk about 4 inch in diameter

Deep fry the breads in the hot oil for 1-2 minutes

Drain on paper towels and serve hot
