Mathri

Mathri is a popular Indian snack known for its crispy texture and savory flavor. These crunchy, bite-sized crackers are made from a mixture of flour, typically a combination of wheat flour and chickpea flour (besan), along with spices such as ajwain (carom seeds), cumin, and black pepper. The dough is kneaded, rolled out, and then cut into small shapes before being deep-fried until golden brown and crispy. Mathri is often enjoyed on its own as a snack, or paired with chutneys, pickles, or yogurt for added flavor. Whether served during tea time or as part of festive celebrations, Mathri is a delicious and versatile snack that is enjoyed by people of all ages.
