In a mixing bowl, combine the gram flour, turmeric powder, red chili powder, cumin powder, and salt. Whisk together until no lumps remain.

Mix in the tamarind pulp, jaggery, and gradually add water to form a pouring consistency.

Grease the steaming tray with oil.

Spread a thin layer of the batter evenly on the greased tray.

Place the tray in the steamer and steam for about 15-20 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.

Once steamed, let it cool for a few minutes.

Cut the steamed batter into strips and roll them tightly.

Heat oil in a pan and lightly fry the rolled Patra until golden brown on all sides.
