About Crispy Pasta Snack ( Tiffin Treats)

Ingredients

Methods

Nutrient values

A completely unique snack, prepared somewhat like crispy noodles, which is used as a garnish in Oriental recipes. To prepare the Crispy Pasta Snack, pasta is cooked and dried completely. Then, it is deep-fried and tossed with aromatic and flavourful seasonings such as mixed herbs. Allow this to cool completely and store in an air-tight jar. You can send this delightful snack to school anytime you wish, but just make sure you pack it in an air-tight tiffin box so that it remains crisp and crunchy. Also pack Bread Pizza ( Tiffin Treats) in another tiffin for a perfect short break combo.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

1 cup whole wheat (gehun)

1 tsp oil

salt to taste

1 1/2 tsp dried mixed herbs

1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper (kalimirch)

oil for deep-frying

Method

How to pack

Allow them to cool completely, and pack in an air-tight tiffin box.

Combine enough water, oil and salt in a broad non-stick pan, and bring to a boil.
Add the fusilli, mix it well and cook on a medium flame for 10 to 12 minutes or till the fusilli is 50% cooked, while stirring occasionally. Drain well and refresh using enough cold water.
Place a muslin cloth on a clean, dry surface, spread the cooked pasta over it, and keep aside to dry for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine the mixed herbs, pepper powder and salt in a small bowl and mix well. Keep aside.
Heat the oil in a deep non-stick pan and deep-fry half the pasta, till they turn golden brown in colour from all the sides. Drain on an absorbent paper.
Repeat step 5 to make the remaining crispy pastas in one more batch.
Sprinkle the mixed herbs-pepper mixture immediately on the fried pasta and toss well.

Hi, As the fusilli is cooked befroe then deep-fried it will be crsipy but it wont be so hard that the child cannot eat it.
