Multani Masala Recipes

MALPUA

Steps:

• For the pancakes: Combine the all-purpose flour, semolina flour, milk powder, fennel and pepper in a large bowl. Stir in the yogurt and gradually add enough milk, while stirring, to form a smooth pourable batter. Set aside at room temperature for 30 minutes, while you make the syrup.
• For the syrup: Combine the sugar, cardamom and 1/2 cup water in a medium skillet. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer and cook until syrupy, about 8 minutes. Keep warm. Meanwhile, soak the saffron in the milk in a small bowl.
• Heat 2 tablespoons ghee in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Meanwhile, add the baking soda to the pancake batter and mix well. Once the ghee is hot, add dollops of the batter (2 to 3 tablespoons each) to the skillet; it should spread like a pancake. Reduce the heat to medium and fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes more. (Make 4 to 5 pancakes at a time.) Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more ghee as needed between batches. Transfer the pancakes to a paper towel-lined plate.
• To serve: Warm the syrup, if it has cooled. Add the saffron-milk mixture. Use tongs to dip/coat the pancakes in the hot syrup and transfer to serving platter. Sprinkle with almonds and pistachios and serve warm.
