Karela Shaped Namkeen

(1.00/5 - 1 vote)


With the Diwali hangover, we decided to make one more easy snack great for teatime. This one  gets its name because of  the resemblance to the karela/ bittergaurd. If you don't want to spend a lot of time in shaping them, these can be made in simple rounds to make a papdis which can be later used for any chaat.

Prep Time: 20 mins
Ingredients
All purpose flour: 1 cup
Chilli powder: 1-2 teaspoons
Cumin /Jeera seeds: 1/2 teaspoons
Oil : 2 tablespoons
Salt to taste
Water: 1/4 cup more or less

Mix all the ingredients except the  oil and water in a bowl. Add warm water and oil  to make a smooth dough as you would for rotis.  Keep aside for 10 mins. Make small balls of the dough and flatten it with a rolling pin like the size of a  big puri. Cut into semicircles. With a knife, make long cuts in the centre without touching the ends. Then slowly roll over and twist the ends to lock it. You will get this karela shape.


Heat some oil in a kadai for deep frying these.  Fry until golden brown. Drain off the excess oil and serve these warm or after completely cooled off.
