Butter Chakli
Butter Chakli is a popular Indian snack that is made by deep-frying a mixture of rice flour, gram flour, butter, and various spices. It has a crispy texture and a savory flavor, making it a delicious treat to enjoy with tea or as a snack on its own.
Ingredients
- 2 cups rice flour
- 1/2 cup gram flour (besan)
- 1/4 cup butter softened
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder
- Salt to taste
- Water as needed
- Oil for deep frying
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the rice flour, gram flour, softened butter, cumin seeds, sesame seeds, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.
- Gradually add water to the mixture and knead it into a smooth dough. The dough should be firm and pliable.
- Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat.
- Fill a chakli maker (press) with the dough and press the chakli maker to form spiral shapes on a greased plate or parchment paper.
- Carefully transfer the formed chakli into the hot oil and fry them until they turn golden brown and crispy. Fry them in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
- Once the chakli are cooked, remove them from the oil and drain them on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
- Allow the chakli to cool completely before storing them in an airtight container.
- Enjoy!
