- Take a large bowl, now add maida, salt, sugar & yeast. Mix everything well. Then add milk little by little and start kneeding the dough. In between add a tsp of oil to Knead the dough. Knead it with stretch and fold method for about 15 mins. and form a soft dough.
- Now divide the dough into 2 equal parts.
- Keep the white part covered & keep it aside. Now in a small bowl add 2 & 1/2 tsp cocoa powder & 1 tbsp water & firm a thick paste. Now mix this paste with the second dough which you left uncovered & Knead that dough again until the cocoa powder paste gets absorbed by the dough completely. Now you have one brown colour dough & one normal maida dough which you kept aside.
- Now divide the brown colour dough into 2 equal parts again.
- Now on one part put a drop of black food colour & Knead into a black dough and the second part of the brown dough, keep it covered.
- Now you have 3 colours dough left with you as shown in the image below. Now brush some oil over the doughs seperately & even cover them seperately, in a warm place for about one & half to two hours or until it gets doubled up in size.

- Now knead each dough for about 2 mins more. Divide them into 6 to 8 equal parts, each.
- Now firstly take 1 brown ball out of the dough, give it a cylindrical shape & keep it aside. Second take a black ball out of the dough & roll it like oval. Now place the brown one over the black & seal it from all the sides.
- Keep the cylindrical shape formed, aside.
- Now take a white ball, roll it into oval. Now place the black & brown cylindrical-shaped dough over the white & seal it from all the sides.
- Now with the help of your hand, roll the cylindrical-shaped white dough little long & divide it into 2 parts. Now seal the edges for both the parts. Each time you take a ball, cover the dough every time or else it would get dried up.
- Now again with the help of your hand, roll both of them little long & keep it aside.
- Do the same with the rest of the dough balls.
- Now press the above formed shape gently. Now grease a bread tin with some oil and place the whole inside it & cover the tin and keep it in a warm place for 30 mins. After 30 mins. it will doubled up in size. Now brush some milk over it and sprinkle some black/white sesame over it.
