Step by step method/picture to make Thattai / Chekkalu...
Ingredients
Rice flour-2 cups
Channa dal-1/4 cup
(Soak it in water for 1 hour & drain the water out)
Slightly dry roasted urad dal flour-2tbsp (optional )
(I used the store bought)
Melted butter-2 tbsp
Sesame seeds-1tbsp
Hing-1/2tsp
Salt-1tsp
Red chilly powder-1tsp
Curry leaves chopped - few
Water-required amount
Oil-to deep fry
Method
Take a wide bowl add all the above ingredients except oil.
Add water little by little & mix to form a tight dough.
Grease a plastic sheet with oil,take a small ball of dough & place it on the sheet.
Grease your fingers with oil & press them to a thin disc.I usually prick it with a fork for even frying to avoid puffing while frying. This step is totally optional.
Heat oil in a pan slide each disc carefully into the hot oil.Deep fry them till crisp & brown on both sides in medium high flame.
Remove them on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
Cool them completely & store it in an air tight container.
Note:
a) Adding urad dal flour is optional,i have made both ways & never found any difference.
b) Instead of butter you can even add hot oil.
c) Crushed garlic & peanuts can also be added for extra taste.
d) Try to flatten the ball as thin as possible.
e) Do not fry in very high flame,try to adjust the temperature while frying.
f) Keep the dough covered to avoid drying.
