Malpuwa















Malpuwa is a sweet made in most parts of northern india.

You Need
1 cup wheat flour
3 tbsp sugar
1/2 cup water
oil or ghee for deep frying
grated dryfruits
cardamom powder

Mix wheat flour,sugar and water and let be for 30 minutes
Heat oil in a flat bottom pan and keep on medium flame
Fill a serving spoon with the mix and slowly pour in the oil
Deep fry till crunchy and brown from both sides
Drain excess oil and decorate with dry fruits and cardamom powder

Check for the consistency of the mix.If its too thin, it might scatter out in oil.If its too viscous,malpuwas might be thick and uncooked from inside.

Hi there,
It seems this recipe doesn't work so well could you give more elaboration on preparation. Mine malpuwa get sink at bottom of frying pan and never comes up? completely soaked in oil/ghee.

There could be multiple factors associated with this. Either you prepared it too early, before 30 minutes or you fried it before the oil/ghee was hot enough. Another tip: if you soak it for more than two hours, it would not come out flat and turn into balls instead.
