Leave aside for half an hour.
Heat oil in kadhai and make small pakodi (we call it phulki)
Take out phulki From the kadhai, shaking off excess oil.
Put the phulki into the hot water for the oil to leave it. It also becomes soft.
Meanwhile in separate serving bowl mix curd with 1/2 cup water, garlic paste, salt and chilli powder.
Now take phulki out of water lightly pressing it so any water it’s soaked can be squeezed out.

It’s a lovely snack. Goes well with Chana ghughni, and Aloo Chat.
