Ingredients:-

1/2  cup sooji (semolina flour)

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon ajwain

4 tablespoons oil

3/4 cup lukewarm water (use as needed)

Oil to fry 

How to make mathri:-

·         Mix all the ingredients except the water.

·         Add the water little at a time, kneading into a firm dough.

·         Cover the dough and set aside for 15 minutes or more. Now, divide the dough into about 40 equal parts.

·         Take each part of the dough and make a flat ball shape. Roll them into 2 inch circles.

·         Prick each mathri with a fork in 5 to 6 places, so the mathris do not puff when frying.

·         Heat the oil in a frying pan on medium heat.

·         The frying pan should have at least 1 1/2 inch of oil. To check if the oil is ready, put a small piece of dough in the oil. The dough should make the oil sizzle and come up slowly.

·         Fry a few mathris at a time. Make sure to place just enough mathris to cover the frying oil.

·         Fry the mathris until both sides are a light golden-brown.
