Haldirams Sev


Sev is the non spicy snack. Generally we make sev with besan and rice flour. But here the twist is i made this with moth flour, which is using them for haldeerams product. I think haldiram food is Indian bachelors most favourite time pass food.

last week i brought moth pulses from Indian shop for try to make haldiram's sev. Finally I succeed...:)..:)...my sev got same taste of haldiram's.

I think few of them only knows about this moth pulses. But moth beans and moth pulses are used a lot in Gujarati cooking, being used to make dhaal and curries.

If you are out of moth flour it is easy to make. Lightly toast moth pulses by heating them in a frying pan until they colour slightly, shaking the pan to prevent burning. Place them in a blender and blend until they reach the consistency of flour. and sieve this.

Ingredients:

3 Cups Moth Flour
1 Gram Flour
1 Sp Chaat masala powder / Ajwain
1 Sp Red Chilly powder
1/4 Turmeric powder
4 Tbls Hot Oil for dough
Oil for deep frying
Salt

Combine the moth flour, gram flour, 4 tbls hot oil, chaat masala powder and turmeric powder, salt. add some water to make a stiff dough.

Heat oil in a kadai

Grease the inside of sev press with some oil. Fill with dough and screw the top tight. Press out thin strands into hot oil. Deep fry on a medium flame till light brown( do not allow to become golden) and crispy. Place on paper towel to drain and cool. Crush to small pieces.
And store in an air tight container.

Can I try this with the store bought moth flour? Last month my husband got moth flour instead of maida, and I'm wondering what to do with it.
