These are lovely evening munching snacks. You call it poori, crackers or any crispy chips...Lovely combo for dipping , chats too.


Ingredients:

Method:
              In a bowl add flour, cumin seeds, ajwain, salt and mix it. Add water little by little and make dough. (not too soft)Let it sit for 1/2 hr or so.
Roll the small dough ball as thin as possible. Cut into small circle, with help of fork make small whole on the poories. Deep fry these till they turn light browon both the side.

Let them cool and serve with any dips or just like plain.
Note:
  • While rolling you can use flour if needed.Cut into any desired shapes
  • Once they are cooled, keep them in air tight container.
  • These may stay for 5-6 days in air tight container...... mine finished that day only..hehehehe :)
