Strain rice and all purpose flower to mix well. Keep aside.

Bring milk to boil and reduce a little. Reduce heat and add the strained flower slowly over flame and mix well until forms a soft dough (might feel a little dry but that will be OK when you add egg and oil later). Remove from heat, add vanilla, whole egg and oil ( knead while the dough still warm otherwise it won't be smooth and soft)

In a saucepan take water, put spices of syrup list and bring to boil. After some time remove star Annie's from boiling water or the flavor will be too strong. Add sugar, dissolve and boil some more time to reduce the water. Reduce heat and keep shimmering.
