Step By Step Instruction: [Hide Images]
- In a big mixing bowl add whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, suzi/semolina, salt and oil.
- Rub the oil and flours with fingertips till everything is mixed and incorporated well.
- Knead a smooth, tight and firm dough adding water in little at a time. The water quantity may vary on the freshness of the flour.
- Cover and keep aside for 15-20 minutes.
- Knead again and divide the dough into 6-8 equal balls.
- On dusted board roll each dough ball to make 10-11 inch diameter circle. It should be not too thick & not too thin.
- Prick the entire surface closely using fork. Pricking will prevent Papdi from puffing while frying and become crisp.
- Using a cookie cutter, cut small bite size circle or different shapes from the rolled dough.
- Remove the extra rolled dough and use to make the rest of the Papdis.
- Heat oil in a deep frying pan on medium high heat.
- Once oil is hot, slide in few Papdis, fry them till golden brown and crisp from both sides.
- Drain the Papdi on kitchen paper towels to absorb excess oil.
- Let them cool down completely and enjoy with the cup of hot tea or use to make chaat recipes. Store leftover Papdi air tight container.
Quick Tips
- You can use only whole wheat flour or only all-purpose flour to make Papdis.
- You can store Papdis for couple of weak in air tight container.
