Drain the water completely. Transfer the soaked dal to a mixer grinder, add black pepper, cumin seeds, a small piece of ginger, turmeric powder, and salt. Grind it into a smooth paste (without adding too much water). Keep this stuffing aside. Make the Dough: In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of whole wheat flour, 1/4 cup of semolina (rava), and a pinch of salt. Gradually add water and knead it into a soft dough, similar to chapati dough. Let it rest for a few minutes. Roll into Balls: Divide the kneaded dough into small, equal-sized balls. Stuff and Shape: Roll out a dough ball into a small circle. Place a spoonful of the prepared moong dal paste in the center. Close the edges of the dough to seal the stuffing inside completely. Roll Gently: Dust it with a little dry flour and gently roll it out again into a flatbread (Roti) shape, ensuring the stuffing spreads evenly to both sides. Toast the Roti: Heat a tawa or griddle (Dosaikallu). Place the stuffed roti on it and cook on medium flame. Flip it over, apply a little oil or ghee, and cook both sides until golden brown spots appear and it is well-cooked. Chef's Note: Your delicious, high-protein Whole Wheat Moong Dal Roti is ready!
