Home made Malpua

This 'malpua' recipe reminds me of my mom....how she used to make these so soft and tasty....that I used to eat only malpuas in dinner on a malpua-day. When I first tried my hands on malpuas , they turned out too hard .....just like a rock [:P] yet my hubby dear ate them happily. Just like a bad hair day , a cook can have a bad cooking day. But when someone praises you for those messed up stuff...you just feel too good to be with that person. So that day I decided to make some soft ones very soon so that he can actually enjoy the malpuas. And I reconfirmed the recipe and the procedure with my mom. This time I did not want to take any risk.

Its a very homely preparation with minimal effort but a lots of love.

Ingredients :

1. All purpose flour (Maida)- 1 & 1/2 cup
2. Sugar- 4 to 5 tbs or according to your taste
3. Scrapped coconut- 1/2 cup
4. Banana (ripe)- 2
5. Milk- 3/4 cup
6. Oil to deep fry

Procedure :

  

Mix maida , sugar , coconut and mashed banana in a large bowl. Add milk step by step and mix it thoroughly. Keep it covered for half an hour. This will help the sugar to dissolve into the mixture. If you find your mixture a little more liquid , add some more maida. Otherwise the mixture will not bind properly and it will mess up while frying. Now heat oil in a kadhayi and when the oil is ready , pour some of the mixture with the help of a round-headed spatula. Fry the malpuas over low flame. Turn them occasionally so that they get fried evenly from each side. 

After frying remove them and keep on a napkin to remove the excess oil. Prepare a sugar syrup and dissolve the malpuas in it.

The malpuas taste the best when they are not hot.
