Ingredients

• 200 grams Chickpea flour (Besan)
• 240 milliliters Water
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
• 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh cilantro
• 0.5 teaspoon Black salt (Kala Namak) for garnish (optional)
• 0.5 teaspoon Chat masala for garnish (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the chickpea flour, salt, turmeric powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, chili powder, and baking soda.

Step 2

Gradually add water while stirring continuously to form a smooth and lump-free batter.

Step 3

Add the olive oil and lemon juice into the batter and mix well.

Step 4

Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Step 5

Pour the batter onto the lined baking tray and spread it out evenly using a spatula to form a thin layer. Alternatively, for smaller chips, drop spoonfuls of batter onto the tray and flatten them.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chips turn golden brown and crisp. Keep an eye to prevent burning.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and allow the chips to cool slightly before breaking them into pieces (if baked as a sheet).

Step 8

Sprinkle chopped fresh cilantro, black salt, and chat masala over the baked chips for an extra kick of flavor.

Step 9

Serve warm or store in an airtight container for future snacking.
