Pineapple Malpua

What You Need:

The measure here makes about 14 malpuas

For Batter: Maida/all purpose flour ~ 1 cup; Sooji/Semolina ~ 1/2 cup; Crushed Pineapple ~ 1/3 cup of crushed pineapple. I used from a Dole Brand can of Crushed Pineapples; Fennel Seeds ~ 1 tsp; Milk (Whole Milk is best) ~ 3/2 cup that is 1 and 1/2 cup silly

For Sugar Syrup or Chinir Ros: Sugar ~ 1 cup; Water ~ 1 cup

Bring water & sugar to boil in a pan till you get a syrup of one-thread consistency. The syrup should be similar to the one you make for say Gulab Jamuns

For Frying: Oil

How My Ma Did It:

Make the batter with all the ingredients listed under "For batter" and let it sit for 3-4 hours

Make the Sugar Syrup by boiling water and sugar to a 1 string consistency

Heat Oil

Pour batter (about 1/3 cup) in the oil to make a round flat shape like a pancake but of smaller radius

Fry both sides till golden brown

Dunk in sugar syrup

Let it soak for a couple of minutes and the take it out

Serve warm
