sev

🥗Healthier: baked chickpea flour snacks

💰Cheaper: none

Baked snacks reduce oil content while maintaining crunch.

1

Start by taking 1 cup of all-purpose flour and sifting it well.

2

Add salt, carom seeds, and cumin seeds to the flour.

3

Gradually add water to prepare the batter, ensuring it's neither too thick nor too thin.

4

Check the batter with a spoon; it should not break and should be smooth.

5

Heat oil in a deep pan on low heat until hot.

6

Dip a spoon into the hot oil, then into the batter to coat it.

7

Place the coated spoon back into the hot oil to form the katori, ensuring the heat is low for even cooking.

8

Pour hot oil over the katori to cook it thoroughly until it turns light brown, similar to samosas.

9

Once cooked, gently remove the katori from the oil.

10

Prepare the filling by adding boiled chickpeas and boiled potatoes into the katori.

11

Add chopped tomatoes and green chilies according to taste.

12

Add green chutney and tamarind chutney to the filling.

13

Top with yogurt, ensuring not to add it too early to keep the katori crispy.

14

Sprinkle chaat masala and add lemon juice at the end to avoid sogginess.

15

Optionally, add sev for extra crunch.
