This simple and delicious recipe is a real treat for weight watchers. Chaklis, the popular Indian snack, is usually deep fried and contains loads of calories. Here's how to make them with 1 teaspoon of oil to near perfection by baking them in an oven. Munch them at anytime of the day when hunger strikes.

Ingredients


1/2 cup rice flour (chawal ka atta)
1 tsp oil
1 tbsp low fat curds (dahi)
a pinch of asafoetida (hing)
salt to taste

Other ingredients
 oil for greasing

Method
  1. Combine the rice flour, oil, asafoetida and salt in a bowl and mix well.
  2. Add the curds and a little water and knead into a soft dough.
  3. Put the mixture into a chakli press and press out round whirls of the dough onto a greased baking tray, working closely from the centre to the outside to the whirl (approximately 50 mm. (2") diameter). You will get about 12 chaklis.
  4. Bake these chaklis in a pre-heated oven at 160°C (320°F) for 10 to 15 minutes. When one side of the chakli turns golden brown in colour, gently flip over the chakli using a flat spoon and bake till they are light brown in colour.
  5. Store in an air-tight container.
