10. Now put the clay lid on the pot.



11. Seal the lid and pot with flour paste. So the moisture with stay in.  

12. Now prepare for fire. I used my fire place but if you don't have that option then you can put two bricks side by side and put wood block in the middle and make fire. Or you can also cook the pot on the propane stove.



13. Let it cook for 45-50 minutes. Don't worry about burning. Little bit burning will give you that authentic smokey taste.

15. Now add sessame oil, green chuteny, garlic chuteny and kotha chuteny ( if you don't have kotha chuteny then you can use tamerind chuteny) in it. 

16. Now sprinkle some sev, serve hot with all the three chuteny on the side and enjoy.
