Steps

30 mins

1

Combine all the ingredients together in a bowl and knead a firm dough. Leave it aside to rest for 5 mins.
2

One the dough has rested, roll out thin slices and poke them using a knife or fork. This will ensure that the pakwan doesn't puff from the centre like a puri.
3

Deep fry the pakwan in medium hot oil for 3-4 mins till crisp.
4

Take out the golden brown pakwan and place on a kitchen towel to absorb all the excess oil.
5

Serve pakwan with tempered chana dal, chutney and chopped onions and tomatoes.
