Kasoori methi Luchi

Luchi is a fried bread popular in Bengal and odisha and being one of my favourites most of the time in our dining table.This time I have tried to add Kasoori methi to the normal Luchi dough and the flavour of kasoori Methi is awesome. Just give it a try for any of your parties and I am sure it is crowd pleasure.

Ingredients:
1 cup Maida / All purpose flour
2 Tbsp Kasoori Methi
1/2 Tsp Nigella seeds
Salt
1 Tsp Oil
Oil for Deep Frying






Mix Maida, Methi, Nigella seeds, salt and oil to make a pliable dough. Roll into circular discs and fry till it is golden colour. I enjoyed these beauties with Paneer Capsicum sabji which I will be posting soon.
