Ingredients
  

Phulki

  • 1 cup Besan (Gram Flour)
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • ½ tsp Red Chilli Powder
  • ½ tsp Baking Powder
  • Water
  • Oil For Shallow Frying

Yoghurt

  • cup Plain yoghurt
  • ¼ cup Milk
  • 1 tsp Sugar
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • ¼ tsp Red Chilli Powder
  • ¼ tsp Cumin Powder
  • 1 tsp Chaat Masala

Garnish

  • Chaat Masala
  • Red Chilli Flakes (optional)
  • Sliced Onions
  • Chopped Tomatoes (deseeded)
  • Green Chilli Sliced
  • Chopped Coriander/cilantro

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl combine gram flour with all the spices. Gradually add water while mixing it. Make a thick batter which is pouring consistency but not too runny. Keep it aside.
  • In a pan add oil and heat it. Test the temperature by putting a drop of batter. It should immediately float. Once oil is at the right temperature turn the heat to medium low.
  • Take a cooking spoon with small holes. Pour the batter on it, use a spoon in circular motion to allow batter to drop in oil.
  • Using a spoon gently move them around. Once they are golden and crispy, strain them and take them out in a bowl.
  • Add water to soak the phulkis for 10 minutes.
  • In the meanwhile, prepare yoghurt. In a bowl add yoghurt and add all the spices. Add little milk to dilute the yoghurt. And mix with a whisk.
  • Strain the phulkis and press them with hands or spoon to drain the excess water. Add them to the yoghurt.
  • Garnish with sliced onions, green chillies, tomatoes and corriander/cilantro. Sprinkle some chaat masala and chilli flakes.
  • Refrigerate for 30 min so the phulkis absorb the yoghurt.
