Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 0.75 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 0.25 cup Whole Wheat Flour whole
- 3 tsp Sesame Seeds
- 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
- 1 tsp Salt or to taste
Wet Ingredients
For Frying
- 2 cup Vegetable Oil for deep frying
Instructions
Prepare the Dough
- In a large bowl, combine all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, sesame seeds, baking powder, and salt.
- Add melted ghee or oil and rub it into the flour mixture using your fingertips until it resembles breadcrumbs.
- Gradually add water, mixing until a soft, pliable dough forms.
- Cover the dough and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.
Shape and Cut the Sticks
- Divide the dough into several equal-sized portions.
- Roll each portion into a thin, even circle (like a very thin roti).
- Cut each circle into thin strips, about 1/2 inch wide.
Fry the Sesame Sticks
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan or wok over medium heat.
- Once the oil is hot, carefully add the sesame strips, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
- Fry the strips until they turn golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch.
- Remove the crispy sticks with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve and Enjoy
- Serve the sesame sticks warm or at room temperature. They are delicious on their own, with tea or coffee, or as a complement to various dips and sauces.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Sesame Sticks
- For extra flavor, toast the sesame seeds lightly in a dry pan before adding them to the dough.
- Don't overcrowd the pan while frying; this will lower the oil temperature and result in soggy sticks.
- Adjust the amount of salt to your preference. You can also add other spices like cumin or coriander for added complexity.
- For a healthier option, bake the sesame sticks in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them as ovens vary.
