Here’s a zesty bite that’s sure to lift your spirits, and add tonnes of excitement to a regular cup of chaai!

The Black Pepper Lemon Sev is bursting with a mix of tangy and spicy flavours, which will wake up your bored taste buds.

Make sure the dough for the sev is loose, otherwise you will find it difficult to press it out into the hot oil. Also make sure you deep-fry the flavoursome sev on a slow flame till crisp, to get the perfect crunch and taste.
