Equipment
Method
- In a bowl, add whole wheat flour, sooji, ajwain, black pepper, salt and mix well.
- Add ghee or oil and rub it into the flour using your fingertips until it forms a crumbly texture.
- Slowly add warm water and knead into a stiff dough. Rest it for 10 minutes.
- Divide the dough into small balls and roll each one into a thick, small disc.
- Prick the discs with a fork to prevent puffing.
- For baking: Preheat oven to 180°C and bake for 15–18 minutes, flipping once halfway.
- For shallow frying: Heat a little oil in a pan and cook mathris on low flame until both sides turn crisp and golden.
- Cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
Notes
Add kasuri methi for extra flavour. Rest the dough well for crisp mathris.
