Bihari Nimki Recipe – Step by Step Video
Nimki is a crispy, crunchy, and flaky tea time snack that can be served with tea or, coffee and makes for a nice evening snack.
About the Bihari Nimki Recipe
Nimki also called namak para or salty diamond fritters is a tea-time snack recipe and I can vouch for the fact that “no one can eat just one”, as it says in the Uncle Chips ad. Nimki, basically means “Salty” in Hindi. But that name doesn’t justify the other attributes of this nice Snack recipe.
It is very crispy and flaky, which can be attributed to the continuous kneading of the dough. This process is very important and is what gives Nimki its texture.

As kids, the only snack that we knew about was Nimki. And yes, there was the mixture (I always wonder as to what that name is and am confused if it should be a Noun or, verb).

And if ever there was a competition in a plate between Nimki and anything else, it was also Nimki that won.
And I am sure it will win over your taste buds as well.

Basic ingredients used for Bihari Nimki Recipe
All-Purpose Flour: Maida is the main ingredient used for this recipe. You can make them with either or both.
Nigella Seeds: Nigella seeds/ kalonji is another important ingredient for this recipe. I really love the taste of it, when it is added in this recipe.
Ingredients
2 cups All purpose flour Maida
1 tsp Nigella Seeds
1 tsp Salt
1/2 cup Ghee/Vegetable Oil
3/4 cup Water for kneading
Oil to deep fry
Instructions
In a bowl add flour, kalonji, salt, oil and mix well. The oil and flour should be mixed very well.
Gradually add water to make a tight yet a pliable dough.Cover the dough and rest it for 10-15 min.
Heat oil in a heavy bottom frying pan.
While the oil is heating divide into 5-6 dough balls.
Take each dough ball and roll it with a rolling pin up to 1 cm thickness.
Cut the flattened dough with a sharp knife into diamond shape.
Once the oil is hot, reduce the heat to low flame.Carefully take the small diamonds and drop one by one into the hot oil (Do not over crowd).
Fry in batches till evenly brown.
Once done take out on paper towel to drain oil.
Let it cool down.
Store in an air tight container away from moisture, it can stay for up to a month.
Nimki can be served with Tea and coffee.

Notes
You can use melted ghee if you want while mixing the flour. Make sure you fry Nimkis on low heat, if the flame is high the Nimkis will turn brown quickly and will remain raw and soft inside.
