Tikhat Shev

Mountain of Tikhat Shev

This picture was taken during the Diwali preparations. Thikat Shev is the easiest thing to make among the munchies. It just vanishes fast from the stocks as soon as it is made especially during Diwali when one gets tired of eating sweets.

Ingredients

1 cup chick pea flour

1 teaspoon red chilli powder

1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup water

1 generous pinch hing

Oil to fry

Mix all the items to get a thick paste. Oil or water should be smeared on the inner side of the Shev press. Fill the press with the paste and drop the shev in hot oil. Fry the shev to nice red color on medium heat. Remove from oil once done in a basket lined with absorbent paper to drain excess oil. Shilpa too had made her version for diwali.
