Steps to make:
Take a bowl and add wheat flour to it. Slowly add water to make a dough. Not too watery but hard to form the diya.
After kneading let it red for 20 minutes in a damp cloth.
Take small portions of the rested dough and roll them into balls.
Flatten each ball slightly and place it in the mould.
You can also use your hands to form the diya.
Press it gently on the mould to form the shape or with your hands on a clean surface to make a four-corner diya.
Make a small hole in the centre of each diya to insert the wick.
Once shaped, place the diyas on a flat surface to dry. Allow them to air dry for a few hours or overnight.
Put oil or ghee in the diya and on the wick.
