Khasta Dhania Mathri - For SNC

Hi everyone ,

 Feeling very happy to be back to blogging ( where I feel I belong ) after a very long time.

 Today I am posting a very delicious snack item from Bihar-Uttar Pradesh for The  south-vs-north-challenge an event started by Divya Pramil . This month the North team was challenged by none other than  Priya Suresh with Cashew pakodas and we the South team were challenged by   Nupur of ukrasoi.com. with these crispy addictive and  flaky mathris .

 I was unable to blog for many weeks due to vacations, some family functions and above all wanted to devote some time to my craft venture. I am very glad that I am getting a very good response to my handcrafted items . Would really feel very happy if you visit my new FB page  https://www.facebook.com/NayanasKreativeKrafts  and give your valuable opinions.

Ingredients :

1 cup....................wheat flour
1 cup....................maida
4 tbsp..................oil
2 tbsp................ghee
1/2 cup.............chopped fresh coriander
4 tbsp................dried kasuri methi
1/2 tsp each ......pepper powder, jeera powder, chilli powder
1/2 tsp..............ajwain
3/4 tsp..............salt
water for kneading
oil for deep frying

Method :

Mix all the above ingredients first with fingers to form a coarse mixture.
Now slowly add water and knead to a hard dough.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth for half an hour.
Heat the oil for frying.
When the oil is hot lower the heat to medium.
Make small balls of the dough and flatten them with your palm.
Drop them 5 to 6 at a time in the frying pan and fry till crisp on slow medium flame.
As the mathris are thick they need to be fried for a longer period .
If you high the flame then the mathris with become brown  outside but remain soft inside.
Serve these crispy yummy mathris with a steaming hot cup of tea or coffee.
