#boxweek6 #boondi
Meethi boondi or sweet boondis are crispy petite-sized golden droplets (pearls) made with chickpea flour which are later soaked in sugar syrup.
It’s an irresistible and addicting dessert that is a favorite sweet treat in my house whenever festivities roll around.

    Now let's come to making of sugar syrup. Heat a pan & add sugar and water (quantity are mentioned above). When the sugar gets dissolved, add a pinch of elaichi powder, kesar. Mix it well. Then add 1 tsp of lime juice & mix it again. This is done, to prevent sugar syrup from crystalising. Now cook it until the syrup becomes sticky in consistency, just like we make rasgulla syrup.

  4. 4

    There should not be any one-string or two-string consistency in this syrup. It just needs to be sticky. Now switch off the flame. Cover it and keep it aside.

  5. 5

    Now let's come to boondis. For making boondis, heat a kadai, add oil in it. When the oil becomes hot enough, with the help of below mentioned spatula, pour the besan mixture over it, little by little. The besan droplets will fall off by its own, refer below mentioned image. Now fry the boondis well from both the sides. Remove them from the kadai.

  6. 6

    Let's do the same process with the rest of the batches. When you are frying a different colour boondis, remember to wipe the spatula well before pouring the second colour over it. Fry the second colour boondis in the same way.

    Now add the boondis to the sugar syrup. Mix them well with the syrup. Remember, the sugar syrup should be lukewarm. Now cover the pan and let it soak into the syrup for about 1 to 2 hours.
