Title: Chickpea Sev Strips
Categories: Snacks
Yield: 1 Batch
1 c Besan/garbanzo bean flour
2 tb Oil
1/4 ts Turmeric powder
1/8 ts Asafoetida
1/4 ts Red chili powder
1/2 ts Baking powder
1/4 ts Ajwain/ Carom seed powder
1/4 c Water
Salt to taste
Heat oven to 355 F or 180 C or heat oil for deep-frying.
Mix all the dry ingredients together well. Knead the flour to a nice
dough using little water at a time. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes.
If you have the sev maker, press the dough through the sev maker to
form thin noodles strips and lay it on parchment paper to bake or
deep fry the sev.
If you do not have a sev maker then place the ball of dough
in-between to parchment papers, roll the dough to a very thin layer.
I used a pizza cutter to cut the dough into long strips. You can cut
it in cracker shapes as well.
Bake for 13-15 minutes till crisp. Let cool completely and enjoy it
as a snack or mix it with roasted nut for extra flavor.
Store in an airtight container for a couple of days.
