Bakarwadi is a beloved savory snack known for its unique spiral shape and a perfect blend of spicy, sweet, and tangy flavors. While often bought from sweet shops, making it at home ensures freshness and the quality of ingredients. In this recipe, we will guide you through the process of creating a soft yet crispy Bakarwadi that stays fresh for weeks.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, gram flour, salt, and oil. Rub the oil into the flour until it resembles breadcrumbs. Gradually add water and knead into a smooth, firm dough. Cover and let it rest for 20-30 minutes.
- Make the Stuffing: Lightly roast sesame seeds and poppy seeds. In a bowl, mix the roasted seeds with coconut powder, red chili powder, turmeric, sugar, salt, and a teaspoon of oil. Mix well to form a coarse paste.
- Assembling the Spirals: Divide the dough into small balls. Roll each ball into a thin oval shape. Spread a generous amount of the stuffing mixture evenly over the surface.
- Rolling: Carefully roll the dough from one side to the other to form a tight log. Cut the log into small, equal-sized pieces (about 1/2 inch thick) to reveal the beautiful spiral pattern.
- Frying: Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Gently slide the spirals into the oil. Fry on low to medium flame, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy all around.
Your homemade Crispy Bakarwadi is ready! Let them cool completely before storing them in an airtight container to maintain their crunch. Enjoy these with a hot cup of tea!
