About Recipe:

Malpua is a delicious recipe soaked in sugar syrup and it’s worth indulging. Here’s a simple way of preparing this dish at home by following some very easy and simple steps. Take a bowl and mix together khoya, maida and sooji or semolina. Next, add cardamom powder and mix well once again. Use some water to prepare the Malpua batter. Ensure that the mixture has a pourable consistency and is not too thick. Once the batter is ready, keep it aside for few minutes. Take a small bowl and soak saffron in water to make saffron water.

Now, heat oil in a pan over low flame. When the Ghee is hot enough, pour a ladleful of the mixture and spread evenly. Keep the flame low and cook until the malpua is golden from both sides. Remove the cooked malpua and drain the excess oil. Drop the malpua in sugar syrup and allow it to soak for 10 minutes. Repeat the same with the remaining batter. Drain the malpuas from the syrup, garnish with pistachios, saffron water and rabri. Serve immediately.serving malpua’s with rabri is also a superb idea. Follow the step by step recipe.

• Saffron (kesar) a few strands

• For garnishing

• Pistachios,chopped 15 – 20

• For Rabri :

• Milk- 1 lit

• Sugar- 1 cup

Directions

• For malpua and sugar syrup
• Boil milk in a heavy-bottomed pan. Reduce heat and simmer till it is reduced and reaches a coating consistency. Add grated mawa and mix well. Bring it to room temperature.
• Reserve two tablespoons of sugar and form one-string sugar syrup with the rest of the sugar and two cups of water.
• Dissolve saffron in a teaspoon of hot milk. Add it to the sugar syrup.
• Add refined flour, green cardamom powder and the reserved sugar to the reduced milk. Mix well and make a batter of pouring consistency using a little milk if required.
• Heat sufficient ghee in a wide mouthed flat-bottomed kadai. Pour a ladle full of batter to form a pancake. Cook on slow to medium heat. Turn it over when it starts to colour slightly.
• When both sides are done, drain and immerse in the sugar syrup. Garnish with pistachios and serve hot.
• For rabri –
• Mix the milk and 1 cup of sugar in a thick bottomed pan, cook to reduce it to a fourth of its original volume while stirring frequently, remove it from the fire allow cooling and chilling in the refrigerator. your rabri is ready now ether you mix it with batter or serve with malpua .
• some time I use rabari instead of koya ,  making malpua’s with rabri really makes a noticeable difference in taste , at some special occasion’s you can try this trick also
• .

Notes

• Let the Malpua batter rest for at least 6-8 hours for a better flavour.
• Traditionally, Malpuas are made with maida. However, if you want healthier Malpuas, use atta or wheat flour. You can even mix them in the ratio of 1:1.
• Last, but not the least, if you want lip-smacking Malpuas, then make the sugar syrup of 1-string consistency and don’t let it thick.
• You can also add some green cardamom powder and saffron in your Malpua for more flavours.
