The ritual of breaking the Karva Chauth fast is followed by a traditional thali filled with mathri and Indian sweets. If you want to make crunchy mathri at home, here’s a step-by-step guide.
2 cups maida ½ cup whole wheat flour 3 tablespoons ghee 5-6 tablespoons water 2 teaspoons ajwain 2 teaspoons kali mirch 2 teaspoons kasuri methi 1 teaspoon jeera 1 pinch hing 1 pinch baking soda Salt to taste Oil for deep frying
Heat some ghee and mix maida, atta, ajwain, kali mirch, kasuri methi, jeera, hing, and salt.
Knead a dough by adding warm ghee and water. Let the dough rest for 15 minutes.
Take small portions of the dough and roll them into thick discs.
Deep fry the mathri till they are golden brown.
Let the mathri cool down and set it for your Karva Chauth thali.
