Ingredient

Food ration :

20 servings

Cooking time :

35 minutes

2 cups

All Purpose Flour or Maida

1/4 tsp

Himalayan Pink Salt

2 tbsp

Milk powder

1/3

Sugar

2 tsp

Instant Dry Yeast

3/4 cup

lukewarm Milk

2 tbsp

melted Butter

1 tsp

heaped Black Seeds or Kalonji

1/4 tsp

Cardamom powder

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Add Yeast to the warm Milk or water and stir it lightly. Keep it aside to prove. Mix Sugar, Flour, Milk powder, Salt, Cardamom powder and Nigella seeds well.

* Step 2

After 5 minutes of standing time, add the Yeast mix to the dry ingredients along with the melted Butter. I have taken instant dry yeast and therefore have added directly to the bowl with lukewarm Milk as required.

* Step 3

Make a smooth dough out of it. Cover and keep aside to double in volume for about 2 hours at least or as required depending upon the temperature at your place.

* Step 4

The quantity of Milk or water added depends upon the quality of the Flour used. Therefore add them accordingly. After 2 hours, punch the dough to release the excess air trapped inside and bring it onto the working surface.

* Step 5

Divide the dough into 3 or 4 parts. It becomes easier to roll them if done like this. Roll each into 1 cm thick disc. Cut out triangular shapes and set aside for another 30 minutes for second proofing.

* Step 6

Deep fry few at a time in hot Oil until golden brown on both the sides. Since this is a fermented dough, it gets fried very quickly. Do please keep a watchful eye on them. Drain on an absorbent paper.

* Step 7

Serve these tempting Fried Dough or Khameer or Bakhamri at tea-time as a lovely Snack. It just melts in mouth. Super duper wonderful Snacking idea for everyone. Enjoy!
