7. Brush milk on the roll. Spread some ajwain on a plate and roll the bread roll over it.
8. Gently cut each roll into 4-5 pieces to get wheels/ chakras of ¼ ‘’ thickness. Place wheels standing upright on a baking tray or on a oven rack covered with foil.
9. Bake in a hot oven at 200 F for 10-15 minutes till edges turn golden.
10. Offer to the Lord and serve immediately.
