Ingredients

1½ cups hazelnuts
3/4 cup gram flour
Salt to taste
¼ teaspoon turmeric powder
1 teaspoon red chilli powder
½ teaspoon chaat masala
1 teaspoon garam masala powder
A pinch of baking powder
2 tablespoons oil
1 teaspoon chaat masala for serving

Method

Place hazelnuts in a big bowl. Add gram flour, salt, turmeric powder, red chilli powder, chaat masala, garam masala powder and baking powder and mix.
Sprinkle one-fourth cup of water so as to coat the hazelnuts with the masala properly. Add two tablespoons of oil and mix again.
Heat sufficient oil in a kadai. When moderately hot, drop a few hazelnuts at a time, taking care that they do not form lumps, and deep-fry till golden brown and crisp.
Drain and place on an absorbent paper. Sprinkle chaat masala.
Cool and serve or store in an airtight container.
