## Notes

* firstly, instead of pepper you can use red chilli powder or combination of both.

* also, make sure to fry in hot oil on medium flame. else khara sev will be raw from inside.

* additionally, rice flour helps to make sev more crispy and tasty.

* finally, **khara sev** stays good for a month when stored in airtight container.
