Thinking I would be able to make these simple chips that I had decided on, I went on to make the other two dishes. As always, I didn't get time to make these savory chips and finally thought if I wasn't able to handle wheat flour, then it's a shame. So finally kneaded the dough with Sambar powder and fried out these savory chips. These are just like the diamond cuts or the savory para that's made with maida.
Wheat Flour Savory Chips
Ingredients Needed:
Wheat flour - 1 cup
Sambar Powder - 1/2 tsp
Salt to taste
Oil to fry
How to make the Chips
In a bowl, take the flour, sambar powder and salt. Slowly add water and knead to a soft dough.
Heat a kadai with oil.
Divide the dough into equal balls, dust and roll out into thin discs. Using a knife cut into diamond cuts. Pick on top with fork, else these will puff and will become soft.
Drop into the hot oil and fry in simmer till you get a cripsy chips.
Drain from fire and store in an air tight box.
Notes:
Since the dough tends to become soft, you got to fry these on low flame.
