ABOUT Whole Wheat Flour Baked Matri / Indian Baked Savory Snacks using Whole Wheat Flour RECIPE

Matris are deep fried Punjabi savory snack recipe made from Maida , Salt and oil. To make this snack a guilt free affair i have baked this matris instead of deep frying. To make it more healthy have made the matris using whole Wheat flour instead of Maida. Though these matris are baked, they are very crispy and crunchy. Use of Kasuri methi gives nice aroma and distinctive flavour and the added crushed black Pepper gives spicy kick to the matris making them all the more tasty. These Matris serve great as guilt free tea time snacks . Can be had as it is or with Green Chili Pickle . I use these baked matris to make a chat dish - Dahi Papdi Chat. These baked Methi Matris serve a good Diabetic snack option too .

Ingredients Serving: 10

  1. 2 Cup Whole wheat flour
  2. 2-3 tablespoon Ghee
  3. 1 tablespoon coarsely crushed black Pepper
  4. 2 teaspoon crushed Kasuri Methi ( dried Fenu Greek leaves)
  5. 1/2 tsp baking soda
  6. Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Dry roast the Kasuri Methi (dried Fenu Greek leaves) on a skillet on low to medium heat until fragrant. Dry roasting the Kasuri Methi enhances its flavors.
  2. Take whole Wheat flour in a bowl , to it add hot Ghee , roasted and crushed Kasuri Methi , Salt , Baking Soda, and coarsely crushed black Pepper . Mix everything nicely and rub the Ghee to the flour with fingers , to obtain a crumbled mass.
  3. Knead the flour to a smooth and stiff dough using cold water. Add water gradually with tablespoon. Cover the dough in a plastic wrap and keep aside for 10-15 minutes.
  4. Divide the dough into 3 equal parts and roll out each portion to 1/4 " thickness using a rolling pin. No need to apply flour or oil while rolling the flour.
  5. Next using a fork poke the rolled out dough evenly. Cut it into desired shapes using cookie cutter . I have cut them into round shape using lid .
  6. Line the baking tray with a parchment paper and grease it. Now arrange these cut Matris on to it and bake it in a preheated oven at 160 degree Celsius for 20 minutes changing the side midway.
  7. Remove the baked Matris from oven and allow them to cool down . The matris become more crisp after cooling. Transfer them to air tight container. Serve with tea or enjoy as it is.
