Ingredients
- 1 & 1/2 cup Plain Flour
- 1 1/4 tbsp oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tsp cumin seeds
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1 cup water
- Preferred oil for deep frying
Preparation
1. Mix the Flour, cumin seeds, salt, pepper and salt together until thoroughly mixed.
​
2. Add the water gradually, until it forms a stiff dough (see top image).
​
3. Once you have formed the dough split it into 4-5 smaller parts and leave to rest at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes.
​
4. Take a rolling board or on a floured surface, roll out each ball of dough until it is about 2-3mm (thickness of a pound coin).
​
5. Once you’ve rolled one out, grab a pizza cutter or a sharp knife and slice into 1 inch diamond shapes, cutting from corner to corner.
​
6. Turn on your oil and allow it to heat up well enough, not smokey hot. Carefully add the first batch into the oil and immediately stir gently with a spoon or spatula.
​
7. Let them get very slightly brown and remove from the hot oil onto a plate with paper towels to soak up the excess oil.
Allow to cool and enjoy with tea!
