METHOD:
1.
Sieve the flour, add salt and owa / jeera /
pepper / onion seeds any of your choice into it.
2.
Also add in 3 tsp oil and rub the oil into the
flour to create sand like consistency.
3.
Add in water little at a time and create stiff dough (poori consistency).
4.
Keep covered for 1 hour. Then again knead the
dough very well till it is smooth.
5.
Make balls a little smaller than a marble.
6.
Roll them out into a thin poori, make sure you
roll it as thin as possible.
7.
Cut the poori into half. Keep aside one half and
roll the other half lengthwise making sure you give a little pressure on the
straight cut side to roll it more thinner than the other surface.
8.
Now take the poori half in your fingers and fold it in
half. Hold the fold in your pinch and give another fold to the two sides so
that it looks pleated.
9.
Join the two pointed ends to the pleated base and
seal it together so that it sticks.
10.
It will look like a pleated flower petal. Put them
on to a plate or a tissue and allow them to dry a little from outside for 1 hour,
keep turning them over at regular intervals for even drying.
11.
Heat oil till smoking hot, put the flame on low
and allow the oil to cool down to low temperature.
12.
Deep fry the nirya on very slow flame till they are
evenly fried, especially at the thicker pleated end. Be very careful, if the oil is too hot, the nirya burn easily.
13.
Remove them on to a kitchen tissue, allow to
cool.
14.
Store them in an air tight container.
