Mix the flour, sooji, salt, black pepper, cumin seeds, lemon drops and oil. Note lemonshould be just 2-3 drops, we are not adding this to flavor, lemon is added to give thecrispness, also Mathries will absorbed less oil.2. Add the chilled water slowly, mixing with your fingers as you pour. Do not knead thedough. The dough should be soft.3. Cover the dough and let it sit for at least fifteen minutes. Divide the dough into about 20equal parts, I decided to make 14.4. Take each part of the dough and make a flat ball shape. Roll them into 2-inch circles.Prick each mathri with a fork about 6-8 places, both sides each, to prevent puffing themathri when frying.5. Heat the oil in a frying pan on low medium heat. The frying pan should have at least 1inch of oil. To check if the oil is ready, put a small piece of dough in the oil. The doughshould make the oil sizzle and come up slowly.6. Fry mathri in batches, making sure to place just enough mathri to cover the frying oil. Frythem until both sides are a light golden-brown. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Takethem out over paper towel, which will absorb the extra oil.Your Khasta Mathri is ready!Follow Me Here- Facebook- www.facebook.com/chefananyabanerjee Instagram - www.instagram.com/chefananyabanerjee Twitter- www.twitter.com/chefananyaProduced by- www.devashishmishrateam.com
