Views: Salty Kaju | Diwali snack Recipe

This I learnt from my MIL and I added one more Item in my Diwali Snacks. Ingredients are same like other Savory bot Tossing in pepper and salt gives quite different taste.Best Tea Time snack.

Ingredients
2 cup Maida (all purpose flour)
1/2 cup Oil/Ghee
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black Pepper powder + 1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp carom seeds (ajwaine)
Oil to deep fry

Method

Sift refined flour into a large bowl. 
Add  Ajwaine seeds, oil and salt and mix together. 
Add sufficient water and knead into a semi-soft dough.Keep aside for 10-15 min.
Make a big  ball and roll but not very thin.Cut into Cashew shape with cookies cutter or small and sharp lid.

Heat sufficient oil in a kadai and deep-fry it on low heat till light golden and crisp. 
Drain on absorbent paper. Sprinkle pepper and salt and toss well.

Store it in air tight container.

Note
While you are sliding kaju into oil flame should be High but after that fry on low flame.Don't fry on High flame otherwise inner side will be Raw.
