Ingredients:-
Besan/Gram flour:- 2 cups

Procedure:-
Sieve together Besan, cumin & coriander Powder , salt,Pepper powder, Turmeric, Ajwain powder & hing in a bowl..and then add 3 tbsp of oil and water bit by bit to make a thick paste/dough ( It should have thick consistency not running ) and then pour some (about 1/2 cup) in the Cookie Press and close it and pour the batter slowly in a circling manner over the hot oil and fry until golden brown..or if you don't have the Cookie Press at home you can use the plastic freezer bag and cut a small hole in the corner and squeeze the dough( in this case dough should be little bit more soft) in spiral shape in the hot oil..
After frying all the sev..Heat 2 tbsp oil in another pan and fry the peanuts and add then crushed garlic and curry leaves along with all the sev you prepared earlier and mix evrything well..(THIS STEP IS OPTIONAL)
NOTE:- If you want to make thin sev then sieving all the ingredients together before starting is very important
