Mathari
£10.00 – £20.00
Matharies are a staple snack of most North Indian homes. They are eaten for breakfast, as snacks with tea, taken on journeys and are ever ready for those unexpected guests we Indians tend to have a lot of. They are the Indian substitute for biscuits, though not exactly biscuits. You can make them with Western style short crust pastry. All you have to do is add a few carom seeds to the pastry, roll and cut like biscuits and bake in a pre-heated oven at 180- 200C for 30 minutes or so, until they are cooked crisp. Made this way, they are a lot more friable and don’t keep as long as fried matharies.
