MATHRI || CRISPY SALTED FLAKY SAVORY || SUHALI
Mathri- A very crispy and healthy snack this you can use for papri chaat. MATHARI, PAPARI or SUHALI can be used in different ways. This recipe is for Punjabi style mathri which is flaky and is spiced with ajwain (carom seeds), kali mirch (black pepper), Kasuri methi (dry fenugreek leaves) and jeera (cumin seeds).
Many people like this flaky savoury as a teatime snack. The shelf life of the Mathari is good, once made you can store it in an airtight container for a long. I like it with homemade mango pickle, you can also try the same.
Moreover, I remember my mom used to make mathri useing different herbs like methi, coriander, ajwain and achar masala.
