Khajuri Recipe
Ingredients:
Recipe :
-
Step 1 Knead a stiff dough and let it sit for 15-20 minutes
To make this super scrumptious recipe, combine refined flour, semolina, ghee and salt in a large-sized mixing bowl. Mix the contents nicely and then pour milk to the bowl, followed by sugar. Knead the mixture to make a smooth and stiff dough. You can add more milk as per the requirement. Cover the dough with a damp muslin cloth and give it a resting time of about 15 to 20 minutes. In the meanwhile, start preheating ghee in a deep non-stick frying pan.
-
Step 2 Roll lemon-sized balls out of the dough using your palms
After the dough is settled down and ready to be used, pull out small portions of the dough and roll it using your palms to make small lemon sized balls. Remember to grease your hands with a little oil so that the dough doesn't stick to your palms. The shape and size of the balls is completely your choice.
-
Step 3 Deep fry the khajuri balls and let it cool completely
By now, the ghee should be hot enough ready to deep fry. On a low flame, carefully drop the dough balls into the melted ghee and deep fry until they turn a beautiful golden brown. Let the balls cook through entirely and then place them on an oil-absorbing towel to drain the excess oil. Let them cool completely and store in an air-tight container. Enjoy as and when you want.
