1

First mix the ghee or oil evenly with the flour,then add salt & carom seeds.After that add cold water little by little to form a tight dough.
2

Now keep that dough aside for 10-15 minutes.Now for the stuffing chop methi leaves very finely. Then mix red chilli powder,salt, Asafotida, coriander powder & whole cumin. Mix it well.
3

Now take a small portion of the prepared dough & roll it out. To make perfect round chakri try to roll the dough into rectangular shape.
4

Now take a spoonful of methi/fenugreek mixture & spread it evenly over the rolled dough. Then gently rub the fenugreek mixture on the dough, so that the dough get to absorb the flavor of the spices.
5

Now roll the dough from one edge to another crosswise. Roll it tightly so that once it goes into the oil doesn't come apart.
6

Now gently press & roll the dough on a plane surface to seal the edges. Now cut the roll into 1-inch coins.

Then roll & press the coins just once & fry those into medium hot oil on low heat preferably. Frying on a low flame turn those chakri super crispy.
