Everything you need

  • 2 cups besan
  • Very little amount of salt
  • 3 pinch cooking soda
  • refined oil for frying
  • 1 1/4 cup of water
  • 1/3rd tsp Red Chilli powder
  • 1/2 tsp black salt
  • 1 tsp zeera powder

  • 3 pinches of garam masala

Cook this Dahi Phulki Recipe Yourself

In a bowl mix besan, salt (very less amount, just for taste), cooking soda and garam masala very well. Now add water slowly to the mix. Keep mixing. Once the mixture gets a thick yet fluid consistency, stir it and keep it aside. Be sure any lumps shouldn’t be there in the mixture.

Now pour oil for frying in a kadhai. Heat it well. To check you can put a drop of the besan batter we’d made. Now with the help of your fingers just pick the batter (not too much though) and put it in the hot oil kadhai. Do this at least for 5-6 besan balls; remember your kadhai shouldn’t be overcrowded.

Fry all the besan phulkis till golden. Usually whenever we fry anything we take them out on a tissue paper. Here we’ll be dipping the hot besan phulkis in water.

Once the besan phulkis turn golden put them in bowl full of (normal) water.

Now, take the curd in a bowl and beat it nicely. Add 4-5 pinches of salt; remember we have already put the salt in phulkis also and we’ll be using black salt for garnishing purpose. So use the salt accordingly. Add 1/2 tsp zeera powder and mix well with curd. Once done, take a wide serving bowl. Take out the phulkis from water and put them in the serving bowl. Pour curd (dahi) on it.

Garnish the besan ki dahi phulki with red chilli powder (you can use Kashmirilal, if you don’t want the dahi phulki to be spicy), zeera (cumin) powder, black salt and above all Imli ki Chutney.

Here it is… Simple, Easy and Tasty!
