Crispy Threaded Chicken

Ingredients:

• Refined flour 2 cups
• Salt a pinch
• Water as required
• Oil 1 tsp
• Dry flour as required

Method:

1. Add the flour and salt, mix well and further add water gradually to make a dough, once combined well, transfer over the kitchen platform, add oil and knead well for 8-10 minutes, you have to knead a soft & smooth dough.
2. Once the dough has kneaded well, cover it with a damp cloth and rest for minimum 1 hour.
3. After rest, divide in equal size dough balls, i've divided in 7-8 dough balls, now cover these dough balls with moist cloth and rest for another half an hour.
4. Resting the dough will help to develop gluten that’ll apparently make easy while rolling the chapati for making the noodles.
5. Now coat the dough balls with dry flour and flatten with hands, further use a rolling pin and roll to make a small size thick chapati, roll at least 3-4 thick chapatis keeping the size equal.
6. Now, add little oil and spread over the chapati, further sprinkle some dry flour evenly, now place another thick chapati, and repeat the process of brushing oil and flour, stack 3-4 chapati together and now roll them into a thin chapati, use a rolling pin and roll to make one thin sheet, i’m making 3 layers sheet you can choose to make 4 layers sheet. By the time you roll the chapati keep the remaining dough balls covered to void from drying.
7. Set a tawa on medium heat, try to use a non-stick tawa, heat until its hot enough, add the chapati and cook briefly for 10 - 15 seconds on low flame, use napkin to turn the chapati while cooking.
8. Carefully try to separate the sheets after cooking briefly, repeat the process of cooking the remaining sheet briefly and separating. Cover the sheets with a moist cloth until used.
9. Once the sheets are ready, trim the sides to roughly make a square shape, now stack the sheets and roll it, now use a sharp knife and cut it as thin as possible.
10. Once its cuts into strips, separate them and keep aside to coat the chicken.
