Ingredients:

• 1 cup chickpea flour
• pinch of asafoetida
• salt as per taste
• 1/4th cup water or as per the need
• 1 TSP hot oil
• pressing device for sev
• oil for deep frying

Method:

• Take 1 cup of chickpea flour in a bowl, add salt as per taste and pinch of asafoetida and 1 TSP of hot oil.
• Mix well. Now add cold water slowly by mixing and forming the batter until the below consistency.

• Meanwhile in a steel vessel heat oil for deep frying.
• Now fill the batter in the pressing device, once the oil is hot enough press the batter into the oil which falls as noodle shape into the oil.
• Turn the sides and take out the sev into the tissue paper to remove excess oil.

Note:

• Make sure not to add excess water while preparing the batter. It becomes soggy and absorbs more oil, hence will not be crispy enough.
• Always note that the oil is hot enough for frying.
