  • Now roll the ball into a thin discs, apply ghee on top of the disk with your finger, prick it with a fork over it.
  • Next fold it into a semi circle and then again fold it one more time to get a triangle.
  • Press all three corner points with your finger tip so that it will not open up when frying.
  • Heat a kadai with enough oil and fry them on medium flame till they get a nice light golden colour.
  • Do not crowd oil, so that all the mathris get cooked on all sides.
  • Using a slotted ladle, drain the fried mathris to a kitchen towel and sprinkle the masala powder over it right away.
  • Adjust the spice powder as per your taste.
  • Allow the mathri to cool down, before you store in an airtight container.
