In a large bowl take the wheat flour, maida flour and rava. Add jeera, ajwain chilly powder and salt for taste. Add 2 tsp of hot oil. Mix well. Add water little by little and knead the mixture into a dough. It should be of chapati dough consistency. Let it rest for 20 minutes. Cut it into diamond shaped pieces using a pizza cutter or serrated cutting wheel.
