Ingredients

  • 1 cup rice flour
  • 1/2 cup barik rawa semolina
  • 1/4 cup besan chickpea flour
  • 1 cup + 3 tbsp water
  • 1 tbsp hot oil
  • salt to taste
  • 1/4 tsp kala namak Himalayan pink salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper powder
  • 1 tsp roasted, white sesame seeds
  • 1/8 tsp chaat masala
  • a pinch of asafoetida hing
  • 1/2 tsp roasted cumin powder
  • oil, to fry

Instructions

  1. Boil 1 cup of water in the saucepan, then add Rawa and cook it, make sure it is without any lumps. Now, add rice flour, besan, salt to taste, Kala namak, red chili powder, roasted cumin powder, cumin seeds, hing, and 1 tbsp hot oil to the cooked rawa. Give them a mix. 

  2. Add a little water if needed and make a soft dough. Let the dough rest for 15 minutes.

  3. Then, make the Chaklis using the chakli maker on a plate or aluminum sheet. Heat sufficient oil in the wok. Once it's hot enough, lower the flame and start frying the chaklis on medium flame. 

  4. Don't fry on very high flame, else they will remain raw from inside. Fry 6-7 chaklis at a time, don't overcrowd the wok. Let them turn golden- brown in color on both sides & drain them on kitchen tissues.

  5. Store them in airtight containers only after they have cooled completely, they stay fresh for 10-15 days.
