Makes: 100 – 110 g
Ingredients
Please use same measuring to measure gram flour and water.
1 cup / 200 ml (Indian standard measuring cup of 200 ml / 8
oz capacity) Besan (gram flour / kadala maav / chone pitti), please use fresh
gram flour of latest manufacturing date
½ teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon kala namak (optional)
1/4 teaspoon kala namak (optional)
1 tablespoon oil (or
1 – 3 tablespoon)
1/2 teaspoon omam (ajwain / carom seeds) powder
¼ teaspoon cinnamon powder
¼ teaspoon pepper powder
¼ teaspoon jeera powder
¼ teaspoon cooking soda
¼ cup/ 50 ml + 3 teaspoon water
300 ml oil to fry
Method
Sieve gram flour.
In a wide bowl, mix sieved gram flour with above ingredients
(except 300 ml oil). Mix well with
fingers (do not use tablespoon) for 5 minutes until all the ingredients well
combined.
Add ¼ cup of water and make a soft dough (add extra 1 – 3 teaspoon
water if required to form a soft dough).
Dough should be like chapatti dough. Other wise it is very difficult to make
sev and it won’t easily come out from sev mould.
Put this dough in a murukku / chakali mould. Use big size sev plate (with lots of big holes) to
make Ratlami sev.
Heat oil in a wide kadai / frying pan and reduce heat to medium and please wait for 1 minute. Fry directly in hot oil (give circular rotations with chakali machine) on a medium heat until light golden color and crisp in 4 batches (depending upon the size of the kadai / frying pan, maintain medium heat. Otherwise it will turn into brown color immediately).
Drain and place on kitchen towel to absorb extra oil.
Break into 1 – inch small pieces and store in an airtight container.
