Mathrie

Ingredients:

• Flour (maida) : 2 cups

• Suji (rawa) : ¼ cup

• Desi ghee : ¼ cup

• Salt to taste

• Oil for frying

• Ajwain : 2 tsp

How to make Mathrie :

Mix flour,ajwain and salt. Add oil and rub the flour between your palms until it takes the form of breadcrumbs,so that the oil coats all the flour nicely(This makes Mathri's crispier)
Add the lukewarm water a little at a time, kneading into a firm dough. Cover and set aside for a atleast 20 minutes.

Make small flat balls of lime size out of the dough . Roll them into 2 inch wide circles. Prick each mathri with a fork or khief in 5 to 6 places on both sides, so the mathris do not puff when frying. Keep them aside for drying on a newspaper or kitchen towels for atleast 1 hour,flipping it once in between.

Heat the oil in a frying pan. Fry a few matris at a time. Make sure that the oil is not very hot.It takes about 5 -7 minutes to fry about 10 -12 matris in one go. Fry the mathris until both sides are a light golden brown.
Cool before storing. Store in airtight containers.

•	Serve it with pickle.

Tips :

If the mathris are cooked on high heat, they turn dark brown and will become soft. So be patient.
Add more oil while kneading doug ,to make them more crispier.
You can also add fenugreek leaves and peppercorns to it ,to make them as of Haldirams.
