Ingredients:
2 cups gram flour (besan) 1/2 tsp. ajwain (omam) seeds 1 1/2 tsp.
red chilli powder 1 tbsp. oil salt to taste 2-3 pinches asafoetida
water to make dough oil to deep fry |
METHOD:
Mix the chilli, oil, salt and seeds into the flour. Add enough water
to make a dough which is quite gooey. It should not be pliable but
sticky. Grease the inside of a Sev-press, fill with the dough. Press
into hot oil, and fry lightly on both sides. Drain well and cool before
storing.
Variation:
You may adjust the chillies as per taste. You may omit chillies to
make bland sev. You may add finely crushed dried herbs (eg. mint)
for add flavour.
Making time:
15-20 minutes
Makes:
250 grams approx
Note: A sevpress is similar to a vermicelli press, but it should be
small enough to handle over hot oil.
