Mini pepper thattai was in my draft for a long time..This is very easy to make and would be perfect with a hot cup of coffee.
Ingredients:
Rice Flour - 2 cups
Urad /Black Gram Dal Flour - 1/4 cup
Coarsely Ground Black Pepper - 3 tsp
Butter - 2 Tbsp
Salt to taste
Chilly powder - 1 tsp
Asafoetida - 1/4 tsp
Oil - for deep frying
Water as required
Method:
In a bowl add the rice flour,urad flour,asafoetida,chilli powder,pepper,salt and melted butter.
Mix thoroughly.Add water little by little until it forms a soft dough.The dough should not be very dry.
In a Ziploc bag smear some oil.Make small marble sized balls from the dough.
Pat the ball and flatten it with the tip of your finger to about 1 inch in diameter.Prick the surface with fork to prevent them from puffing up while frying.The ends of the thattai should not crack.If it does,sprinkle little water and mix.
Heat oil in a pan.When hot enough,deep fry them until they are golden brown in color.
Drain with a slotted spoon store them in airtight container.

Nice Crispy thattai
I loved these snacks during my recent Chennai visit . This one is called thattai i didn't know. I had one from adyar ananda bhavan which had whole urad daal pieces and sesame along with some cumin and peppercorns...loved that one very much. It will be very helpful if you can tell me the name of that...i tried to make that one at home and was successful in recreating the taste , but the texture was different ...will try this recipe next time.
I have tasted this when I was at home but never knew it is prepared this way.. thanks for sharing it.
lovely pics..i love those crunchy munchy..

Crispy and cute thattai.I am first time here.You have lovely colletion of vegetarian recipes.
the name brings me memories of this snack bought at the Kabali Temple in Chennai!- super outcome!
Loved this recipe. I substituted vegan butter for the actual butter in the recipe, but came out great! Always trying to find new vegan snacks that have real flavor.
Looks lovely and sure would have tasted good with pepper..
