Level: Easy

Prep time: 5 mins + resting time (15 min)
Cooking time: 15 mins

Ingredients

All-purpose flour  - 1 cups (120g)

Salt - 1/2  teaspoon (3g)
Ajwain(carom seeds) - 1/4th teaspoon

Oil  - 2 tablespoons (30ml) + for frying
Water - 2 1/2 tablespoons (37ml) approx

Directions

• Rub Ajwain in between the palms and mix with flour,salt and oil (2 tablespoons). Mix until breadcrumb consistency.
• Add water little by little to form a hard dough.
• Rest the dough covered for 15 mins, you will find white spots on it. white spots are nothing but salt granules  :-) 
• Knead the dough and divide into 3 balls and roll to thin chapati and cut it into desired shapes.
• Heat the oil, drop the squares into medium hot oil and remove when light brown.

Tips

• Use oil for rolling the dough. If flour is used for rolling then while frying dusted flour will be sinking to the bottom.
• Drop a small piece of dough in oil, if it sizzle and floats slowly then you can add the rest.
• If oil is hot then namak paareys will be soft.
