Masala Khakhra - Crispy Gujarati Snack


             These are absolutely crispy and healthy snack that can be stored in airtight containers. They can be enjoyed with your evening cup of tea / coffee or with some homemade hummus/dip anytime of the day, especially while watching your favourite TV programme. They are far better than any of those greasy store bought chips. So check out the step by step pictorial recipe to prepare this oil-free snack.
          







  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup besan (gram flour)
  • salt to taste
  • 1/2 tsp. turmeric powder
  • 2 tbsp. kasuri methi (dry fenugreek leaves)
  • 1 tsp. red chili flakes
  • 1-2 green chilies, finely chopped
  • 1/2 tsp. garam masala powder
  • 1/2 tsp. coriander powder
  • 1/2 tsp. cumin powder
  • 1/4 tsp. asafoetida
  • 1 tsp. kanda lehsun spice mix (opt)
  • 1/2 tsp. carom seeds (ajwain)







          
          In a bowl, combine all the above mentioned ingredients. Add water little at a time and knead into a dough. Cover and keep aside for an hour.

          Divide into equal portions. Roll each portion into a circle just like chapatti and as thin as possible.

          Heat a tawa / griddle and roast the rolled out chapattis, one at a time, on a low flame on both sides. 

          Keep pressing it with a kitchen towel all over to make it more crisp. When one side is done flip it over and continue the same process. 

          Roll out rest of the dough and prepare similar khakras. Serve as a tea-time snack or have it with some hummus / dips for a light snack / appetizer.
