How to Make Crispy Besan Sev at HomeVeg

1

Sift the chickpea flour to remove any lumps.

2

Add salt and chili powder to the flour and mix well.

3

Stir in most of the oil (reserve a little for later) and gradually add cold water.

4

The dough will be quite sticky; use a spoon to bring it together, then oil your hands and shape the dough into a log.

5

Select your preferred disk (the medium-sized disk is recommended for a crispy result) and place it into the machine.

6

Place your dough log inside and press it down, then secure the lid.

7

Heat fresh sunflower oil in a deep pan.

8

Test the oil by dropping a small piece of dough; if it rises in 2-3 seconds, the oil is at the correct temperature.

9

Hold the machine over the hot oil, turn the handle clockwise to release the dough while moving your hand in a circular motion. Turn the handle anti-clockwise to stop the flow.

10

Fry until the sizzling subsides and the Sev is crispy and light in color.
