- Imp note :.
- All the flours used for the chakli, need to be finely ground to get good chaklis. Do not add even a little more ghee else the chakli won’t hold shape while frying and will break up. An important point here, is the force with which the gas flows from your cooking stove. In some cases the force is more and sometimes it is less. Accordingly the temperature of the oil will differ. So, while frying adjust the heat accordingly..
