Take 1 cup of urad dal flour and grind it into a fine powder if not using readymade.

Sift the urad dal flour and then mix it with 2 cups of gram flour in a mixing bowl.

In a separate bowl, combine 3/4 cup of water, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 tablespoon of oil, and 1.5 teaspoons of salt; mix well.

Knead the dough using the water mixture, ensuring not to add too much water; the dough should be hard and firm.

Add 1 tablespoon of oil to the dough and knead it well for a few minutes until the texture is perfect.

Shape the dough into cylindrical portions and cut them into small pieces.

Roll each piece into a very thin circle, thinner than a chapati, and cover them with oil to prevent drying.

Let the rolled dough rest for 5 minutes before cutting it into small stripes without cutting all the way through.

Prepare the spice mix by combining 1 tablespoon of black salt and 1 tablespoon of red chili powder in a bowl.

Heat oil in a frying pan; once hot, add the prepared dough strips and fry until they pop up and turn light golden and crispy on medium flame.

Immediately sprinkle the prepared spice mix over the fried cholaf.

Serve with a special chutney (recipe to be shown later).

Store the cholaf in an airtight container for 8 to 10 days.
