Recipe
Bara is a quick bread made of flour, baking powder, salt, and ground turmeric (which gives the bread its yellow color). It is flattened to a thin round disk about 4 to 5 in (10 to 13 cm) in diameter and fried until golden brown. The bara is then filled with the channa ready to be sold. There is no set recipe for the channa, which can be just curried or mixed with curry and dhal (split peas, usually the yellow variety).
