Parsi Peni - A simply tempting sweet ! & Awards

Are you bored with cakes and cookies!!! if so just go a little desi ;) Parsi peni is a simple fried sweet that would tempt your tongue. Its all about putting your favortite ingredients together in a different form. ;) Enjoy making :)

Ingredients:

All purpose flour(Maida) - Required quantity to make the dough
Powdered sugar - 1 1/2 cup
Milk - 1 cup
Ghee - 1 cup
Oil - For deep frying

Method:

Beat ghee and 3/4 cup of powdered sugar together in a bowl. Now pour in milk and mix well.

Once done add all purpose flour little by little and mix well until the contents roll into a ball(Poori dough consistency). Approximately 1/2 kg of all purpose flour would be requited for making it.

Make marble sized balls and press them in a poori press or just by pressing them in between two plastic sheets. Now in a pan of oil, deep fry the flattened dough till it puffs up like poori. Do not over roast, it just has to change to light golden brown. Never mind if it really does not puff up much, it would still be tasty. Remove the pooris from the oil and sprinkle the remaining 3/4 cup of powdered sugar on the pooris.

This quantity would make around 60 Parsipeni.

Yummy Parsi peni is ready to eat.. Absolutely drool worthy simple dish and I am sure you would agree with me. :)

Note: Sprinkle the powdered sugar on the pooris right after they are removed from oil, otherwise it would not stick to it.

I am sending this to Fall in Love - Ghee event conducted by Sanghi. :)
