Welcome to the channel and introduction to the recipe.

Take 2 cups of all-purpose flour using a measuring cup.

Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the flour, adjusting to taste.

Add 1/2 teaspoon of caraway seeds, mashing them slightly to release flavor.

Melt 1/2 cup of ghee and add it to the flour mixture, mixing well without adding water initially.

Mix until the flour forms a crumbly texture, resembling a good fist.

Gradually add water to knead the dough for about 7-8 minutes until smooth.

Cover the dough and let it rest for 30 minutes to 1 hour.

After resting, divide the dough into two portions and shape them into small balls.

Roll out each ball on a flat surface using a rolling pin, keeping the thickness slightly thicker than chapati.

Cut the rolled dough into strips using a pizza cutter or knife, then cut across to form diamond shapes.

Heat oil in a deep frying pan, checking the temperature by adding a drop of dough; it should float when ready.

Fry the cut dough pieces in the oil for 7-8 minutes on low-medium heat, ensuring they do not burn.

Remove the fried Namak Pare and drain on paper towels, checking for a golden color and crispy texture.

Store the Namak Pare in an airtight container for up to 1-1.5 months.
