Prep time: 15-20 minutes
Cooking time: 20-25 minutes
Serves: 3-4 people
Dough
Ingredients:
PAPAD KHAR | पापड़ खार 1 TSP
ASAFOETIDA | हींग 1 TSP
WATER | पानी 4 TBSP
GRAM FLOUR | बेसन 2 CUPS
SALT | नमक TO TASTE
CAROM SEEDS | अजवाइन 1 TSP (CRUSHED)
OIL | तेल 2 TBSP
WATER | पानी 2 TBSP
OIL | तेल AS REQUIRED
Spice mix
BLACK SALT | काला नमक 1/2 TSP
ASAFOETIDA | हींग 1/2 TSP
BLACK PEPPER POWDER | काली मिर्च पाउडर 1 TSP
Method:
In a bowl add the papad khar, asafoetida, water & mix well to dissolve the papad khar.
Further sieve the gram flour into a large bowl & add salt, carom seeds & oil, mix well & add a very little amount of shortening to the flour by rubbing & massaging it gently.
Now add the papad khar & asafoetida water in the flour & mix well, further add 2 tablespoons of water & knead the dough until it comes together, you have to make a semi soft dough.
Once the dough comes together & leaves the surface, add in a few teaspoons of oil & knead until the dough becomes stretchy.
Once the dough becomes stretchy & smooth cover it using a damp cloth until you fry fafda further.
To fry fafda, heat oil in a flat-bottomed vessel until it reaches 160 C or gets moderately hot.
You will require a flat chopping board & a knife to shape the fafda, place a wet kitchen towel onto the platform & set your chopping board on the towel, this will prevent the chopping board from slipping.
Now to shape the fafda, take a small portion of the dough & roll it into a thick cylinder using hands.
Place the dough cylinder lengthwise onto the chopping board & then using the base of the palm spread the dough upwards to flatten it out.
Then peel the shaped fafda using a knife & fry in the oil directly over medium low heat for a few minutes until the fafda cooks from both the sides, make sure that you don’t fry it for too long as it takes only a few minutes.
Once fried remove the fafda from the oil & place it onto a sieve.
Your perfectly fried fafdas are ready.
To make the special spice mix for fafda, add black salt, asafoetida & black pepper powder into a bowl & mix it, sprinkle this spice mix over fafda while serving.
