Namak para

Nimki or nimkin , also Namak para (or namakpare) is a crunchy savoury snack eaten in the Indian subcontinent. It is similar to Mathri from Rajasthan and parts of Punjab and Uttar Pradesh. Namak para is ribbon-like strips of pastry (made up of refined flour, oil and water) delicately seasoned with ajwain and cumin seeds (jeera) in pure ghee (clarified butter) or any oil. It requires approximately 10 minutes to prepare and 20 minutes to cook. The appearance, taste, and texture can be compared to that of samosa pastry.
