Namakpare/Nimki from Panda's Kitchen, prepared in 2 ways.
Ingredients :
- 2 cup Maida
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Kalonji/ Black Jeera
- 1/2 tsp Ajwain
- 1 tbsp Oil to knead
- 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
- Oil for Frying
Recipe Details :
✓ Take all the above ingredients (except oil for frying) in a bowl.
✓ Mix them well with hand and keep Mixing them until flour starts binding.
✓ Keep adding water to it gradually and knead to make a soft and stiff dough.Keep it covered for 30 mins in refrigerator. This will make the Nimki more crispy and crunchy.
✓ Take out from fridge after 30 mins. Knead the dough well one more time and let's start preparing the Nimkis.
✓ To make the triangle Namakpare, Make very small balls out of it.
✓ Take one of them and using a rolling pin, roll to very thin 2-3 inch radius circles. Brush a little oil and sprinkle some flour on top of that.
✓ Now give it a shape of triangle. Do the same for all dough balls. Prick them randomly using a fork so that the air bubbles come out.
✓ To make the regular Nimki, make equal size big balls from the dough. Using rolling pin, make thin Puris.
✓ Cut them in very thin diamond shape.
✓ Now it's Nimki frying time. Heat oil in a kadai. Oil should be hot before putting the Nimkis inside kadai. (You can check first putting a small amount of dough)
✓ Put some of the Nimki in kadai and keep Frying them in low-medium flame. Don't turn the heat high.
✓ Flip them in between. Fry until both the sides become golden brown in color. This will take not more than 4-5 mins in total.
✓ Namakpare / Nimki is ready. Let it cool down before you transfer to an airtight container.
