Crispy Mathri/Suhali

Mathri or Suhali is a delightful rajasthani snack to eat with tea or coffee or with some pickle. DH just love it with a hot cuppa tea!
Last year when my mom visited us at sydney, she brought some mathri in a tupperware box..till date whenever my daughter sees that box she would call it suhali box!! She remembers nani brought suhali in that box a year back!
This is a all time favorite snack, made with love by mom during our growing up years. It is so tempting too..cant stop eating while making it!
