Cooking steps for Garlic Sev
- 1Alright, let's talk about garlic sev—the crispy, crunchy, spicy snack that's as addictive as your favorite Netflix binge. This garlic sev recipe is a total flavor bomb, packing in that garlic punch we all secretly crave, plus the perfect balance of spices. This is going to be your new go-to tea-time treat.
- 2Start by grabbing 8 cloves of garlic, and in your blender, throw them in along with 1/2 teaspoon of ajwain (carom seeds), 1/2 teaspoon of pepper, ¼ teaspoon of turmeric, and 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder.
- 3Add ¼ cup of water to help everything blend to a smooth, fragrant paste.
- 4Once that's done, transfer the masala paste into a large mixing bowl and get ready for the magic.
- 5Now, pour in 3 tablespoons of oil, add a pinch of hing (asafoetida, the secret ingredient that adds a depth of flavor), and ¾ teaspoon of salt. Whisk everything together like you're trying to impress your Insta followers—make sure the oil, spices, and salt are all well combined.
- 6Next, it's time to bring in the besan (gram flour). Add in 2 cups of besan and mix it in with a spoon, letting it absorb all those glorious flavors. Now, the real kneading fun begins: add ¼ cup of water and start kneading the mixture into a smooth, super-soft dough.
- 7Keep adding water bit by bit if needed, but don't go overboard—you want the dough soft and pliable, not a sticky mess.
- 8Once the dough's perfect, grab your chakli maker and grease it well.
- 9Take a ball of dough and stuff it into the press.
- 10Now, get ready to channel your inner chef and press the dough into the hot oil, forming a circle with the sev. Don't overlap—let each piece have its moment to shine in the oil.
- 11Fry the sev for about a minute on one side, then flip it over and cook the other side until it turns golden and crispy. You want that perfect crunch, so keep an eye on it.
- 12Once the sev is done, drain it on some kitchen paper to absorb the extra oil, leaving you with crisp, golden perfection.
- 13Now for the best part—once it's cooled a bit, break the lahsun sev into pieces, grab your favorite cup of chai, and get ready for the crunch of your life. This recipe of garlic sev is the ultimate savory snack, with that irresistible garlic flavor kicking in and just enough spice to keep things exciting.
- 14Serve it up as a snack, or just munch on it while binge-watching your latest obsession. Either way, it's guaranteed to disappear way faster than you can say "extra crispy!"
