How to make Papri Chat

Sift flour, ajwain, salt in a bowl.
Add 2 tbsp of oil. Using both hands, rub the fat into the flour until the mixture resembles fine bread crumbs. Add a little water at a time and bind the flour into a soft, pliable dough. Knead it really well for about 5-7 minutes. Cover with a damp cloth and leave to rest for 15 minutes.

Heat oil in deep frying pan and fry a few at a time over medium heat to a crisp golden color.
