Ok - so I trying making Nimkis. Baked snacks. I think they call it namak para in hindi.
And I baked it, instead of frying.
So opened the tin that has atta (whole wheat flour) and saw some tiny black insects. Common things. Which means fine sieving needed. Then got some refined flour. And some baking powder and some salt. Sieved it all.
Then added oil and little water and fingers crumbled it up. Then little water till I had a smooth dough.
Dough rested for 15 minutes which I was browsing something on the net.
Then rolled out a ball, cut it into small pieces and baked it. Pre heated oven , 200 C for 14 mins. Dont ask me why I chose 14.
After 14 the snacks still did not have color. So another 8 minutes. Then pulled out the plate.
The underside was slightly raw. So overturned each, and 10 more minutes.
Then pulled out the lot and let it cool.
And a second batch.
I will put that away in bottles, can be stored away I suppose. Doesn't taste bad, but I think a bit too salty.
