Saffron-Scented Mini Malpuas
Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup semolina (sooji)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
A pinch of saffron strands
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons yogurt
Ghee for frying
Sliced almonds and pistachios for garnish
Instructions:
In a microwave-safe bowl, warm the milk for 15 seconds and infuse the saffron strands in it.
In a separate bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, semolina, and baking powder.
Gradually add the saffron-infused milk and yogurt to the dry ingredients, stirring to form a thick batter. Let it rest for 15 minutes.
In a microwave-safe dish, melt some ghee for frying.
Using a tablespoon, scoop small portions of the batter and drop them into the hot ghee, shaping them into mini malpuas.
Microwave the malpuas on medium-high for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn golden and crisp.
Drain the excess ghee and place the malpuas on a paper towel.
Garnish with sliced almonds and pistachios and serve these saffron-scented mini malpuas to satisfy your sweet cravings.
