How to go about
Divide the dough into equal sized balls .
You could choose to make regular or mini sized Vedhmi .
Roll the ball into a small disc and place a portion of stuffing in the cente and fold the edges of the dough over the filling. Pinch the edges together to seal the filling.
Cook on a tava (griddle) over a medium flame, till it turns golden brown in colour from both the sides. Repeat with the remaining dough and stuffing. Smear a little ghee on each Vedhmi and serve hot.
