Baadusha
Hi people 
..this is my entry for JFI (Jihva for ingredients)
Ingredients
- Maida ( All purpose Flour) – 1 cup
- Butter – 2 Tablespoons
- Sugar – 3/4 cup
- Baking Soda – a pinch
- Salt – a pinch
- Cardamom Powder – 1/4 teaspoon
- Saffron strands – few
- Ghee for frying.
Method
- Sift the maida , salt and baking soda together.Add a little water ,butter to the flour and form a soft dough.Dont knead too much.
- Make small balls and form patties.Gently press the middle of the patty half way through using index finger.
- Heat ghee ( can substitute oil for ghee to cut down on fat) in a kadai and fry the baadusha patties until light golden brown and crispy.
- Heat the sugar with 1/4 cup of water and stir in the sugar syrup until it becomes sticky.Add saffron and cardamom to the sugar syrup.Take it out of heat.
- Dip the baadusha in the sugar syrup for 2 or 3 minutes in the sugar syrup and arrange it in a serving dish.
Note : Dont keep the patties in sugar syrup for too long as the sugar syrup hardens when cooled and it will be tough to remove the patties.
