Steps
- 1
- 2
Preps:proofing the yeast,add yeast pack to 2 tablespoon white suger and warm- hot water...try not to put boiling water as this will kill the yeast.while you wait for yeast start on crushing the cardamom seeds..kids like to help here just supervise them
- 3
The yeast is ready to use if looks like this:
- 4
Adding the ingredients to the flour:to the plain flour,add brown suger,salt,yeast,butter,ghee,crushed cardamom. Mix to combine.
- 5
Add the warm milk bit by bit as last step as you will need to control consistency with amount adding and with mixing in.
- 6
At this point the dough may have not come together very well and may seem wiered but thats ok as it will come together nicely after proofing.keep mixing,and then at point of sticky dough add a tablespoon of oil at edges of bowl to help with kneading.also use a spatula to help form the dough. Then set aside dough for proofing.(this may take 2-3 hours depends on temperature)
- 7
After 2 to 3 hours...place a board surface sprinkled with flour and lift out your dough...you will see that now it' forming better and velvety as well as stretchy and sift...carry on working it and form a rid shape and hit the dough on the surface to soften it more and knead again briefly about 2 to 3 mins..
- 8
Twist and turn it until you are happy and now ready to divide the dough into ball shapes
- 9
Make the dough balls,here you will obtain 5 and a bit pinched off.pinch off any extra larger bits that may show while you are dividing and shaping.place into your well dusted bowl and dust more flower on them
- 10
Because this dough freeses well,you can place in food bags and into freezer if not using on the same day!saves you time and effort for another day.for example prepare in advance in Ramadhan fasting or for eid breakfast as is also done
- 11
If using the same day,you can take a ball and roll out a circular disk of about 4 mm thickness,then cut into 4 parts triangulars for each ball
- 12
Put your frying oil on your stove and heat through well.try if oil is ready by placing a piece of small dough and if sizzling start adding your triangles 4 at a time while also moving the oil with your spoon so that it reaches the middle
- 13
Turn to other side when golden brown and risen up enof.remove onto paper towels.let cool..bismillah enjoy with tea, or stews /curries
