Ingredients
-
1 cup all purpose flour
-
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
-
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
-
1/2 teaspoon ground fennel
-
1/4 teaspoon salt
-
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
-
1 cup granulated sugar
-
1/2 cup water
-
1 pinch saffron threads
-
Canola/vegetable oil for deep frying
Garnish:
-
Slivered pistachios
-
Edible flowers
-
Saffron threads
Directions
- In a bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, cardamom, fennel, and salt. Add condensed milk and milk, and whisk until a creamy homogenous batter forms.
- In a medium saucepan heat water, sugar, and saffron until sugar dissolves, and slightly thickens to a one string consistency. Remove from heat and keep warm. Fill a frying pan one centimeter up with oil and heat on medium. When oil is hot, gently pour 1/4 cup of batter into the pan, and cook for 1-1.5 minutes on each side until golden and crispy on the outside, and fluffy and cooked through in the middle.
- Place warm Malpuas directly into the warm saffron syrup, and flip to coat and saturate. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with pistachios, colourful edible flowers, and saffron threads. Serve warm and enjoy! :)
