In a blender add the onion and garlic, cumin, turmeric and some water and blend until smooth paste.
Add all the other ingredients to the blender and blend again until combined. It should be like a pancake batter.
Cover the mixture and keep it in a warm place for about 4-6 hours or until it doubles in size.

I Want To make Camaabur But I Dont Know Where i Can Find Millet Flour
Please Can You tell me Where I Can Find the Flour?
Thank You
You can find millet or sorghum flour from any indian grocery stores, or try your local natural food stores, or your local supermarket. depending where you live.
You can also find online at Bobsredmill.com, Millet flour, or sorghum flour both will work in this recipe.
if you cant find it is not a must really, you can add more plain flour instead.
I hope this helps let me know how you get on.
this is spot on Mashaa Allah
