Let's try this hot and delicious Fafda Recipe in cloudy atmosphere !!
Makes: 3 to 4 servings
Ingredients :-
- 1 cup besan/ gram flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon ajwain
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper, finely ground
- 1 tablespoon oil
- Salt to taste
- 1 cup water, or as required
- A pinch of asafoetida/ hing
Method:-
- Begin by pouring all the dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
- Now add water gradually to the bowl and mix the ingredients well, till everything gets knead into soft dough.
- Once the dough has been prepared, it still might be sticky. Therefore add oil to it and knead it again for 2-3 minutes more.
- Once done, divide the dough into 12-15 equal sized portions and make them into small balls.
- Roll each of these balls into long and thin strips. Ensure that the rolling is done at a stretch to avoid the dough breaking up or sticking to the rolling pin.
- Now heat the oil in large deep frying pan and slip each of the long dough strips carefully into the pan.
- Deep-fry the fafda dough strips on low flame for 1-2 minutes, turning them till they are browned on both sides. Remove them from the oil once done and serve the fafdas hot.
- Serve the Gujarati Fafda along with Gujarati Kadhi and Papaya Salad.
Happy Monsoon :)
