Steps

5 mins

1

Take a bowl then add gram flour, turmeric powder, carom seeds, salt, black pepper, baking soda, asafoetida, and oil. Mix it well.
2

Now add water little by little and make a soft dough. When the water is absorbed, the stickiness will go away and you will get a soft dough. So knead till you get a soft smooth dough. Cover and keep aside the dough for 30 minutes.
3

After 30 minutes, make small balls from the dough. Cover them with a kitchen towel so that they do not become dry. Now on a wooden board place the dough and roll it and make a cylindrical shape.
4

Now with the heels of your palms, with light pressure and force, press and flatten the dough ball and at the same time move the palms forward. If you apply too much pressure then fafda will stick to the board.
5

Now heat oil the in the pan. Now place the fafda into the hot oil. And fry it on low to medium flame till it's become golden brown in colour from both sides.
6

Your fafda is ready. Serve it hot with besan chutney or green chutney or imly chutney. Enjoy!
