Hi

I have tried this receipe. It turned exactly the way you said. Crunchy & same taste as bhajani chi chakali however it didn't work with piping bag :( so thats way I ended up making puri.

Thanks for sharing.

@sachinbadekar

Thanks so much for feedback. I am sorry that piping bag didn't work for you. Good to know that you liked the taste, other thing you could have done that making it in kadboli shape. Thanks...

Hi Madhura,

This is my first Diwali with hubby here in Canada so I was pretty excited. In all my excitement I made around 2 kgs of Chaklis using Bedekar instant Chakli mix, 2 kgs of rava ladus and 2 kg of besan ladus using my ma in laws recipe. I sent faral most of my friends but one friend couldnt visit us due to some other commitments and now I am running short of Chaklis. And at the same time I came across ur Chakli video :) Now m planning to give it a try, u are a saviour indeed !!!

Hey Madhura , nice recipe, i m gonna try this it tomorrow. Can i use rice flour instead of Maida ? Thanks :)

[madhura94]

@kadamanushri

I never tried using steamed rice flour, you may give it a try. But I would suggest to stick to Maida as it gives the best taste. Thanks for asking :D

[madhura94]

@radhabhi

Where do you live? I am getting my own in next week, you can borrow it at any time :D Other thing you can try using Icing bag that's used for cake decorations and having star nozzle attachments, it would work too. I have a recipe for Thin Poha chivda, you can find it on my website on my home page, plus I have a plan to post recipe for thick poha chivda as well. Thanks for recipe request :D

[Esunshine71]

these shapes are so beautiful . what is the point of steaming the flour?thanks

[madhura94]

@Esunshine71

Thanks so much. Good to see your comments after a long time :D You need to steam it over medium heat for exactly 15 mts. Thanks for asking. Have a great weekend !!

[villagebelle]

Very nice. Please ask your friend where to buy that old- fashioned wooden chakli maker - I'd love to get one!

[madhura94]

@villagebelle

That one she got it from India, I am not really sure if its available in USA stores. Sorry about that...

[villagebelle]

@madhura94

Madhura, I know its from India - please ask her which place - and possibly store area.
