When it comes down to sweets and desserts, our love for them is unconditional. Today, let’s make it all about malpuas. Malpua is a famous deep-fried Indian pancake filled with sweetness and enchanting aroma. There is something special and utterly delicious about malpua, unlike other Indian desserts. Malpuas are fluffy, sugary, soft with crispy edges, making them a perfect indulgent treat for taste buds. This Indian pancake comprises a batter with primary ingredients such as flour and khoya, then deep-fried in desi ghee. Before serving, they are constantly dunked in sugar syrup and enjoyed. We are pretty sure many of you must have treated yourself to loads of delicious malpuas at home during this Diwali. But who says sweets are only meant to be savoured during occasions and festivals? The end of any festive season doesn’t mean we have to put an end to our cravings for sweets too. So pack your tummy with insanely delicious homemade malpuas. Ace the art of making restaurant-style malpuas at home by simply following the three tips and tricks we have shared below.
1. Add soda for fluffiness
The simple trick to add fluffiness to your dishes is simply adding a soda pinch into the batter. Then, follow the same while whisking the batter.
2. Constantly whisk a thick batter
Getting a perfect batter with the right consistency is necessary if you want restaurant-style malpuas at home. First, whisk a batter of medium thickness. It should neither be too thick nor delicate or light.
3. There should be 1-string consistency of sugar syrup
The thickness of your syrup must be one string. If the right consistency is not achieved, your malpuas will not be evenly coated, and they won’t absorb the syrup well too. Also, soon after deep-frying your malpuas, dunk them in sugar syrup for at least 10 minutes. Leaving them in the sugar syrup for a longer time helps better absorption.
