Recipe#12 OMPODI/BARIK SEV

Hi friends,
Ompodi/Barik sev is a simple and delicious indian snack recipe.It can be made easily at home. It is very good during monsoon since the effect of carom seeds are beneficial in preventing cold.

INGREDIENTS:

• Besan-2cups
• Ajwain(carom seeds/ omam)-1tbsp
• Salt-1tsp
• Oil for deep frying

METHOD:

• Soak Ajwain in a little water
• Grind it in a mixer grinder  
• Take Besan, Salt, ajwain water in a mixing bowl
• Mix well and prepare the dough
• Fill it in an ompodi maker or sev maker
• Deep fry the ompodi in oil
• Remove from oil with the help of a puri strainer or the regular strainer 
• Place it on a kitchen tissue to drain off the excess oil 
• You may use the for this
• Allow it to cool
• Store in an air-tight container

• The airtight container I use for storage depends on the amount that I need to store. Accordingly, I use one of the containers, the links for which are given below:

  
  

  Tupperware Plastic Container - 1.7 Litres

  
  

  Tupperware - Within Reach Canister 840ml

  
  

  Glass Container (400 ml) with Rust Proof Air Tight Lid

  
  

  Matki Glass jar with Airtight Metal Lid - 500 ml

  
  

Note:

• Instead of soaking ajwain in water, you can dry the seeds, grind it to a fine powder, seive it and use it in this recipe
• Once you remove the ompodi from oil, place it one on top of the other and then break it into pieces.
