Mathri

Mathri is one of the simplest and the tastiest snack item I have known. The only reason that kept me away from this was that it needs to be deep fried.

But now I have my oxy fryer :) So I can prepare low oil mathris..

With these low oil mathris, we can just indulge in guilt free gobbling ;)

Ingredients
Maida - 1 cup
Oil - 2 tablespoon
Salt to taste.
Enough water to make a stiff dough.
Ajwain - half teaspoon

Procedure:
1. Sieve the maida. Next add salt, ajwain and oil. Mix well.
2. Add just enough water to collect and make a stiff dough.
3. Make lemon size balls of the prepared dough and just press between palms.
4. Pre-heat Oxy Fryer for 5 minutes at 140° C. Arrange the mathri in fry basket and close it properly.
5. Keep the fryer at 140° C for 20 minutes. In between remove the mathri from the fryer and turn them to cook uniformly. Now fry at 180° C for 10-15 minutes to bring desired colour.
6. Store and keep in air tight container.

Have it with a cup of hot chai!!

Notes:
1. In case you do not have a air fryer, you need to deep fry the mathris.
