Boondi
June 16, 2013Ingredients:
Gram flour : 1 cup
Sugar : One and half cup
Broken cashews : 10pcs
Raisins : 6nos
Ghee : 1 tbsp
Pacha karpooram : a pinch
Sugar candy(kalkandu) : 1 tbsp
Cardamom pdr : a pinch
Powdered sugar : 1 tbsp
Water as required
Oil for frying
Method:
Mix gram flour with required water to make a thin batter. Dont make it too thin. The batter should be lump free and should drip drop by drop when it poured on the jarny(perforated ladle) and keep aside.
Put sugar and water in a pan and keep it in medium flame. Boil the sugar syrup till we get the one string consistency (when you touch it between your index finger and thumb and pull it apart, it should form a string). Remove from fire.
Heat oil in a kadai. Gently pour 1 ladle batter in the boondi ladle and tap it. Droplets of batter will fall into the hot oil, fry it (do not fry it till crispy). Remove it from oil and repeat the process with the remaining batter and keep aside.
Heat ghee in a kadai and fry cashews and raisins seperately.
Add fried cashews, raisins, pacha karpooram and cardamom pdr to the sugar syrup.
Add the boondi to the sugar syrup and mix well. Finally add 1or 2 tbsp of powdered sugar to this, mix well. Boondi is ready!
