It’s a wonderful addition to your Diwali snacks collection or any festive platter!
Ingredients
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine wheat flour, salt, red chili powder, and sesame seeds.
- Add the oil (moen) to the flour and rub it in well with your fingertips until the flour looks like coarse breadcrumbs. This is the secret to the crispiness.
- Gradually add water and knead the mixture into a smooth, soft dough. Be careful not to over-knead.
- Divide the dough into small portions and place them in a chakli press (sev maker) with the desired disc.
- Press the dough onto a greased plate or directly into the hot oil in a circular motion to form the chakri shape.
- Deep fry on medium heat until the chakris turn golden brown and crisp on all sides.
- Remove and drain on a paper towel. Let them cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
Your homemade, market-style Instant Wheat Flour Chakris are ready! Serve them with a hot cup of masala tea for the ultimate snacking experience.
