Ingredients

Ingredients For the yellow lentil paste

  • ½ cup Yellow lentils
  • ¼ cup Onions (chopped)
  • 1 medium Tomatoes (chopped)
  • ½ inch Ginger (julienne)
  • 1 tablespoon Green chilies (finely chopped)
  • ¼ cup Raw mango (chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Red chili powder
  • 2 teaspoon Chaat masala
  • 1 tablespoon Mustard oil
  • ½ lemon Lemon juice
  • 2-3 tablespoon Coriander leaves (chopped)

Ingredients For the Chaklis

  • 1 bowl Prepared lentil paste
  • ½ cup Whole wheat flour
  • 1 pinch Turmeric powder
  • 1 teaspoon Red chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon Carom seeds
  • 2-3 tablespoon Coriander leaves (chopped)

Instructions

  • Soak the yellow lentils in water for at least 45 minutes or until they have absorbed water and are soft.
  • Then, drain them of the water and transfer to a mixing bowl. Add all the ingredients in batches and keep mixing.
  • Once the ingredients are properly mixed, transfer them to a blender. Blend into a smooth paste. You can add water if the mixture is too dry.
  • Next, transfer the prepared paste to a bowl. Add the whole wheat flour, turmeric powder, red chili powder, carom seeds, and coriander leaves. Mix well. If the mixture is too dry, add a little bit of water until you achieve a mixture with loose consistency. The consistency should be easy to pipe using a piping bag. If the mixture is too flowy, then balance it by adding a little bit of flour.
  • Line a baking tray with butter paper and pipe round shapes as shown in the image.
  • Bake in the oven at 180℃ for 40-45 minutes or until the chaklis turn golden and crisp.
