Prepare sugar water by mixing 1/2 bowl sugar with 1/2 bowl water until dissolved.

In a mixing bowl, combine 1/2 bowl matthi flour and 1 bowl besan.

Add 1 tablespoon carom seeds, 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, 1 tablespoon red chili powder, and salt to taste.

Add 1 tablespoon oil to the flour mixture and mix well.

Gradually add the prepared sugar water to the flour mixture to form a dough, ensuring not to add too much water.

Knead the dough until it is neither too hard nor too soft, resembling bhakhri dough.

Divide the dough into portions and roll each into a ball.

Flatten each ball slightly and roll it out to a medium thickness, ensuring it is not too thin.

Cut the rolled dough into round shapes using a cookie cutter or a glass.

Heat oil in a deep frying pan for deep frying.

Once the oil is hot, carefully add the cut dough pieces one by one to avoid sticking.

Fry on low heat until they puff up and turn golden brown, then remove from oil.
