Ingredients
The following ingredients have 15 Servings
- All-purpose flour (Maida) - 2 cups
- Rawa (Sooji) - 1 cup (unroasted)
- Sugar - 1 cup
- Egg - 1
- Baking powder - 1.5 tsp
- Turmeric powder (optional) - 1 tsp (for colour)
- Cardamom - few (crushed)
- Milk (boiled and cooled) - required amount
Instruction
- First beat the egg in a bowl, mix sugar and baking powder with it.
- Then add the maida little by little and mix without any lumps. Add milk if required, but the dough should not be watery.
- Then add the sooji little by little and mix it. Add milk if required.
- Mix the crushed cardamon and turmeric powder. This turmeric powder gives a light yellow colour and a different taste.
- Finally the consistency of the dough should be like we can make balls out of it. It should not be so tight like chapathi dough, but little looser than that.
- Leave the dough covered for an hour.
- When you are ready to fry, heat oil in a kadai. Form 14 to 15 balls out of the prepared dough.
- Fry it in hot oil over low flame. The cakes will start cracking as it gets fried. Fry till it gets a beautiful golden colour on the outside.
- Drain excess oil using a sieve or paper towel.
