Lots of times, I have a pantry ingredient at hand which I want to use. Maybe the ingredient is nearing its best-before date, or maybe I just want to try it out! Sometimes I order an ingredient after watching some recipe video, and by the time the delivery arrives, I have forgotten about the recipe, and now don't know what to do!
In this Idea series, I am going by ingredients, instead of dishes - and will list some recipes which I can use for the ingredient. Hope this is useful!
It's my usual challenge - bought some amazing avocados, now am making a guac, what to pair it with?
Of course, there are plenty of gluten-free and regular crisps/crackers available in market now. And there is always toast. But if I want to go home-made and preferably gluten-free, here are some ideas:

Whole wheat puri/papdi (for cheat days)
Ingredients:
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- bhuna jeera
- salt, pepper, chilli, hing powder, haldi
- 2 tsp oil
- 1/4 cup besan - planning to try this, not present in original recipe
- fresh chopped methi leaves - I have dill leaves right now so will try the recipe with them and update
Divide into 24 portions.
Roll a small circle - prick it evenly with a fork.
Grease a baking tray and bake at 180 degrees for 16 minutes. Flip once after 8 minutes.
Update: All changes worked spectacularly. I have realized that I used to consider making such papdi's, especially for baking, very precise Science, but it is very easy. I have even used left-over parantha dough to bake small puri's in oven, and they have come out pretty good.
