My 75th Post on Blog! A much awaited post that I took so long to post. A goal which other bloggers reach in a couple of months it took me more that two years but that's alright! "Slow and steady wins the race" (that's what I say to myself to motivate though there is no race going on whatsoever). I have been preoccupied lately and given away blogging for every trivial reason but I'm glad I returned and to start with I'm sharing a snack recipe Pudiney ke namak paare.
Salty tit bits with a touch of mint pudiney ke namak paare are a great jar snack that is easy to carry for picnic or long journeys. They are loved by all, kids and adults alike. They can also be served as an evening snack dish alongside a hot cup of tea.
Ingredients:
- All purpose flour/Maida - 2 1/2 cups
- Kasuri methi - 1/2 tbsp
- Dried Mint leaves - 2 tbsp
- Ajwain -1 1/2 tsp
- Red chilli flakes - 2 tsp
- Milk - 1/2 cup
- Salt - to taste
- Oil - for deep frying
Method:
- In a large bowl mix in together all the ingredients except milk and oil.
- Add milk little by little and start kneading. The dough shouldn't be too soft. Cover the dough with a damp towel and let it rest for some time.
- Next, divide the dough into equal lemon sized balls. Take one ball and start rolling it like a chapathi while keeping the others still covered.
- Cut diamond shaped namak paare out of the rolled chapati and place it on a plate. Repeat with the rest.
- Meanwhile also heat oil just enough for deep frying. Slide the namak paare into the moderately hot oil gently. Do not over crowd the pan. Once golden brown remove the namak paare to an absorbent sheet.
- Serve warm.
