Chef's Notes
Treat your dough like a cherished heirloom; respect the resting phase and ensure your ghee distribution is immaculate for maximum crunch.
Pro Tip
When frying, never crank the heat to maximum or your nimki will brown instantly on the outside while remaining raw and chewy inside. Patience is the ultimate spice!
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
If you rush the rolling and fail to prick your dough with a fork, your nimki will inflate like angry little balloons and turn into hollow, oil-logged disappointments!

The Culinary Science
The layering technique, known as lamination, traps moisture between fat-coated flour barriers that turn to steam in hot oil, forcing the dough apart into delicate, flaky sheets.
