  • 2 tbsp ghee/oil
  • Salt to taste
  • ¼ water or add as required
  • Oil for frying

  • Collect all the required ingredients.
  • Take whole wheat flour and semolina in a bowl.
  • Now add salt and carom seeds.
  • Mix it well.
  • Then pour in ghee/ oil.
  • Rub in ghee with your fingertips into the flour till it resembles coarse crumbs in the mixture.
  • Now add water little by little to make a tight and firm dough. It should not be soft.
  • Cover it and let it rest for 30 minutes.

rolling and making the papdi :

  • After 30 minutes, knead the dough once again to make it smooth.
  • Divide the dough into 3 equal balls.
  • Roll each dough ball thin with a rolling pin.
  • Roll it into a big large circle. It should not be too thick or too thin. It should have medium thickness.
  • Prick the entire surface using fork, so that they don’t puff while frying and become crisp. Make the holes very near.
  • Using a cookie cutter or small glass, cut round or different shapes from the rolled dough.
  • Place the small circles in a plate.
  • Remove the extra rolled dough and use to make the rest of the papdis. You can also make tiny balls and then roll each into a small disc.
  • Repeat the same with second dough ball and prepare all the papdis.

frying the papdis :

  • Heat the oil for frying papdi in a kadai on medium heat.
  • Once the oil is hot, simmer the heat to low-medium and slide the papdis in the oil.
  • Do not over crowd the kadai.
  • Flip them to get even color from both sides.
  • Fry the papdis till they are crisp and turns golden brown in colour from all the sides.
  • When the papdi are fried, the sizzling in the oil stops automatically.
  • Remove it using slotted spoon to drain excess oil.
  • Drain out the fried papdis on paper kitchen towels to absorb excess oil.
  • Deep fry all the papdi in the same manner.
  • Cool them completely and store in an airtight container for upto a month.
  • Serve this crispy papdi with tea or coffee or anytime as a light snack.

Notes

  • Using semolina/suji gives it a crunchy texture which we like. You can also make these papdis without semolina also.
  • Whole wheat flour soaks more water. So to knead the dough of these papdi you will need more water than what is needed for maida dough.
