Be patient while deep frying because mathri takes more time to cook as it needs to be deep fried over low heat. If you deep fry over high flame then it will turn golden brown immediately but may remain uncooked from inside. Do not over crowd while deep frying to allow them cook evenly. Make sure that dough is not soft otherwise Spiral bites will not turn crispy. Kasuri methi is added to give the Punjabi touch to this crispy snack. You can also add 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds and 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds instead of kasuri methi and carom seeds for variation.
Quick chatpata and healthy addition to plain papad.
Sindhi speciality double fried for extra crispiness.
