In a mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, sugar, and cardamom powder.

Heat a non-stick griddle or cast-iron tawa over medium heat and lightly grease it with ghee.
4
Pour a ladleful of batter in the center and spread it outward in a circular motion to make a thin pancake.
5
Drizzle a few drops of ghee around the edges and cook until golden brown on the underside, then gently flip and cook the other side.
