Sweet Maida Biscuits


INGREDIENTS:
   Maida - 1 Cup
   Powdered Sugar - 3/4 Cup
   Baking Soda - 1/4 Tsp
   Ghee - 1 Tsp
   Cardamom Powder - a pinch
   Oil - As needed

METHOD:
  • In a bowl add Maida, Powdered Sugar, Baking soda, Ghee, Cardamom powder and mix well.
  • Add Water little by little and make a soft and pilable dough.Keep aside for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Take some portion of the dough and roll it into a thin circle.
  • Using the knife or pizza cutter first cut vertical lines and then cut diagonal lines to form diamond shape.

  • Now heat enough oil in a pan to deep fry. 
  • Carefully take the diamonds and drop in a sprinkled way and deep fry in oil.Drain the excess oil using tissue paper.
  • Repeat the process and complete the remaining dough.
  • Cool down and store in an airtight container.

NOTES:
  • Always fry the diamonds in medium flame to avoid burning.
  • If the dough sticks while rolling dust with some maida and roll it as thin as possible.
  • I used my special cutter to cut into diamond shape, if you dont have one you can use knife or pizza cutter.
