Equipment

  • 1 Oven

Ingredients

  • 250g Refined Flour
  • 75g Wheat flour
  • 50g Gram flour
  • 50g Semolina
  • 1 tbsp Oil
  • ½ tbsp Cumin seeds
  • ½ tbsp Carom seeds
  • 1 tbsp Coriander seeds
  • 1 teaspoon Fennel seeds
  • ½ tbsp Black pepper
  • 2 tbsp Dry Fenugreek leaves
  • 1 pitch Asafoetida
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  • Refined flour, wheat flour, gram flour, semolina, salt, cumin seed, carom seed, asafoetida, dry fenugreek leaves, and coarsely crushed spices should all be combined in a large mixing bowl. After thoroughly combining everything, add some oil. Now gradually add water as you knead the stiff, tight dough. For 15 to 20 minutes, cover and set aside.
  • After that, knead the dough once more to make it smooth and then form little lumps out of it. Lift a lump, spin it around, then gently press it between your palms. Repeat the procedure with additional dough clumps.
  • As many mathris as you can carefully put into a wok filled with hot oil and cook on a medium-low temperature until they are golden brown and crispy.
    To remove extra oil, drain the fried items on paper towels for the kitchen. Also cook the remainder.
  • Serving:
    The mathris should be thoroughly cooled before being stored in an airtight container. It remains fresh for two months.
    Serve them with your favorite pickle and relish.
