Malpua dessert recipe

Ingredients

For pancakes

Milk 1 1/2 litres
Refined flour 3 tablespoons
Mawa (khoya) dried evaporated milk solids grated 50 grams
Green cardamom powder 1/2 teaspoon
Ghee (Indian clarified butter) for shallow frying

For sugar syrup

Sugar 2 cups
Saffron a few strands

For garnishing

Pistachios chopped 15-20|

Method Step 1: Boil milk in a heavy-bottomed pan. Reduce heat and simmer till it is reduced and reaches a coating consistency. Add grated mawa and mix well. Step 2: Bring it to room temperature. Reserve two tablespoons of sugar and form one-string sugar syrup with the rest of the sugar and two cups of water. Step 3: Dissolve saffron in a teaspoon of hot milk. Add it to the sugar syrup. Add refined flour, green cardamom powder, and the reserved sugar to the reduced milk. Step 4: Mix well and make a batter of pouring consistency using a little milk if required. Heat sufficient ghee in a wide-mouthed flat-bottomed kadai. Step 5: Pour a ladle full of batter to form a pancake. Cook on slow to medium heat. Turn it over when it starts to colour slightly. Step 6: When both sides are done, drain and immerse in the sugar syrup. Garnish with pistachios and serve hot.|
