Ingredients:
Maida (All purpose flour)- 2cups
Rice flour- 1cup
Semolina(sooji)-  4 tbsp Groundnuts-1/2cup(roasted,and coarsely ground )
water-1/4cup or as required
Sesame seeds -3tsp
Oil-1/2 cup

Red chilli powder-1/2tsp
chopped coriander leaves-1/2cup
Chopped curry leaves-1/2cup
Sugar-1tsp
Salt-to taste

Method:
Mix all the above ingredients to a soft pliable dough. Don't knead it too much
Cover and let it rest it for 30 mins.
Pre-heat oven as per your oven settings. Divide the dough into equal small balls n flatten each ball in between your hands and arrange them on the baking tray.

Prick on the circular discs with fork & brush with a drop or two of oil on top before keeping them in the oven.Bake till golden brown in colour (approx. 200 degree Celsius for 10 mins). Cool and store in an airtight container. Please adjust the spiciness according to ur taste.

Note:  Baking time varies from oven to oven, the above time & degree is just an approximate.

Dip fingers in water while flattening the balls.This prevents the nippattu from sticking to hands.

To get really crispy nipattus, flatten the dough really thin.
