01
Step
Preparation
Pour 1½ cups of milk into a mixing bowl. If using mawa or milk powder, add it and mix well until dissolved.
02
Step
Preparation
Add 1 ¼ cups of all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon of elaichi powder, and 1 teaspoon of saunf to the bowl. Mix well until combined.
03
Step
Preparation
Adjust the batter consistency by adding more milk if needed. The batter should be of flowing consistency, not too thick or too runny.
04
Step
Preparation
If you prefer fluffy malpuas, beat the batter for a few minutes with a fork or whisk to incorporate air.
05
Step
Preparation
Set the batter aside for 4 hours or more if time permits. This allows the flavors to meld and the batter to relax.
06
Step
Sugar Syrup
Combine ½ cup of organic sugar and ¼ cup of water in a pot. Heat over medium flame, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
07
Step
Sugar Syrup
Boil the sugar syrup until it reaches a sticky consistency or a 1-string consistency. This is crucial for the syrup to coat the malpuas evenly.
08
Step
Sugar Syrup
To prevent crystallization, add 2 teaspoons of lemon juice to the syrup or place the syrup pot in a larger pot of boiling water.
