After an hour dough should have rise double of its original size.

Knead again for about 2-3 min.

Make balls of equal size.

Roll the ball and stuff in the bhaji of your choice.I have used pav bhaji ki bhajibut made it little dry.

Close from all the sides.

Place the stuffed balls in a greased tin.

Beautiful they have rise and double size.   Brush with milk before baking.

Alternately pour both the batters carefully

Same batter above the same colour batter.

Now ,with the help of toothpick superficially pull the batter from outward to inward.

Will get a flower shape.

Place a rack in an empty pan or cooker.

 Preheat the pan with a lid on it for around 5min.

Place the tin in a hot pan ,cover with lid and bake for 30 min under very low flame.

See how beautifully the cake has risen.

Check the cake by inserting a toothpick whether completely done or not. If the toothpick comes out clean means cake is done or if the batter sticks to the toothpick means not done ,hence further need to be baked .

Demold the cake after cooling .
