Yet another deep fried, instant curd based savory snack recipe chosen from one of my old written recipes book.

This year for recent gokulashtami also I had made this tengolu only instead of the traditional tengolu. This is no doubt a quick recipe, which doesn’t take much time, which you can make whenever feel like savoring.

Only thing is you just need to have those very few basic/regular ingredients which are always readily available at home generally. Then it’s like just gather everything and make these popular snacks in minutes.

Normally these kind of tengolu recipes are made on special occasions or festivals like deepavali, but can be made as a tea/coffee time snack as well.

This recipe doesn’t use any water but the sour curd is used to knead the dough, which gives an enhanced flavor to this snack.

Ingredients : measuring cup used – 250 ml

  • Gram flour/besan/kadale hittu – 1 cup
  • Rice flour/chawal ka atta/akki hittu- 1 cup
  • Curd – 1/2 cup
  • Red chili powder (less hot) – 1&1/2 tsp
  • Cumin seeds – 2 tsp
  • Butter – 1 tsp
  • Hing – 1/4 tsp
  • Salt – 3/4 tsp
  • Oil – for deep frying

PROCEDURE :

  • Gather everything together in a bowl/parath, mix well and knead into a soft dough, knead it well
  • Heat oil in a pan (it should be hot not smoking, else the tengolu will get burnt)
  • Put the dough in the mould having the tengolu plate, squeeze one by one as per the desired size on a butter paper or small plates and deep fry until light golden color or crisp
  • Allow them to cool down, then store in an air tight container
