1 tsp turmeric powder

2 tsp coriander cumin powder

1.5 cups water

Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and dried red chilies. Let the seeds splutter. Add asafoetida, red chili powder, turmeric, and coriander-cumin powder. Mix quickly to avoid burning the spices. Pour in water and bring it to a boil. Add tomato puree and crushed kasuri methi. Let it boil again. Add broken papads to the boiling mixture and cook for 2–3 minutes, or until the papads soften. Add salt to taste and mix well. Serve hot with chapati or plain rice.
