INGREDIENTS

1 cup plain flour
¼ cup Supreme Fine Semolina
¼ cup Supreme Milk Powder
½ tsp Supreme Green Cardamom Powder
1 tsp Supreme Fennel Seeds
Pinch of salt
1 ½ cups milk
Oil for shallow frying

Syrup:
1 cup sugar
½ cup water
1 tbsp lemon juice
Garnish:
2 tbsp Supreme Almonds, finely chopped
2 tbsp Supreme pistachios, finely chopped
Saffron

METHOD

In a bowl, mix together plain flour, fine semolina, milk powder, green cardamom powder, fennel seeds and  pinch of salt. Slowly add milk and whisk well until you have a smooth batter. Cover and rest the batter for 20 minutes. In the meantime, make the Syrup. Add sugar, water and lemon juice into a pot. Bring to a boil over medium heat and stir until sugar dissolves. Turn the heat down and boil for 10 minutes then remove from heat and set aside. Heat enough oil to shallow fry. Once the oil is hot gently add ⅓ cup of batter into the oil. Fry until golden then gently flip and fry the other side. Remove using a slotted spoon and directly add to the syrup. Soak for a few minutes on each side then place on a serving dish. Repeat with remaining batter. Garnish with chopped nuts and saffron and serve.
