Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Coconut flour
- 0.25 cup Chickpea flour (Besan)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Asafoetida (Hing)
- 0.25 teaspoon Carom seeds (Ajwain)
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Ghee or butter
- 0.5 cup Water
- 2 cups Oil for deep frying
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, chickpea flour, salt, red chili powder, turmeric powder, asafoetida, carom seeds, and ground black pepper.
Melt the ghee or butter and add it to the flour mixture. Mix well with your hands until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
Gradually add water and knead into a soft, smooth dough. Be careful not to add too much water; the dough should be just pliable.
Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. To test if the oil is ready, drop a small piece of dough into it; it should rise to the surface without browning rapidly.
Take a sev maker or a thick piping bag fitted with a star nozzle, and fill it with the dough.
Pipe out circular patterns of dough directly into the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pan.
Fry until the kara sev is golden brown and crisp. Use a slotted spoon to turn them occasionally for even cooking.
Remove from the oil and drain excess oil on a paper towel.
Let it cool completely before storing it in an airtight container.
