Ingredients
Easy Badhusha Seet Dish /lallyrecipes |
baking Soda -1.3 tsp (or 2 pinches)
Ghee – 1/2 cup (Vanaspathi or dalda is optional, but ghee is prefered and it will stay little long when stored)
Curd – 3/4 cup
Sugar – 3 cups
Water – 1 1/5 cups of water
Cardamom powder – 1/2 tsp
or Rose essence- 5 to 6 drops -for flavur
Method
- Mix curd, ghee and a pinch of baking soda and beat it till it froths.
- Sieve maida along with another pinch of baking soda.
-Make dough using curd- ghee mixture, the consistency must be softer than the chapathi dough.
-Make it into a big chapathi (thickness as that of a chapathi ) , using both the hands make pleats on the rolled dough (just like saree pleats) starting form one end.
-Now you will get a thin strip of folded dough. Cut this into equal pieces of about 1 1/2 inch and flatten it. We do this to get layers and the badhusha will be crispy. Place this prepared dough in the fridge for about 10 minutes, take it out, leave it covered with a damp muslin cloth for about 10 minutes. Now it is ready for frying.
- In the mean time prepare a 2 string sugar syrup. For flavor add cardamom or rose essence.
-While the sugar syrup is getting ready preheat the oil. Now fry the pieces of prepared dough till it is golden brown, drain the oil and immediately soak it in the sugar syrup.
-Let it be in the syrup for about 5 minutes. Take it out and place it in a dry plate. Allow it to cool and store it a dry air tight container.
You can garnish the badhusha with grated & coloured coconut, or place a roasted pistachio or badam. Roasted cashew doesn’t look that good for garnishing, because badhusha and cashew colour are almost the same.
Cooking Tip
To avoid the crystalisation of sugar syrup while you are frying the badhusah add 2 to 4 drops of lemon juice to the sugar syrup.
