Oil for deep frying


Preparation:



Chop curry leaves into very small pieces. In a mixing bowl add all the ingredients except water and oil.
Mix together well and 3 spoons oil.
Mix well.
Now add water little at a time to make  a stuff dough.
Cover and let it rest for 1 hour.
Remove and knead the dough once again.
Now divide the dough into small balls ( grape size / cherry size)
Using rolling pin make small poories  giving them round shape.
Using fork or knife make  4 to 5 slits on the poori so that they wont puff up while frying.
Take a  large cotton cloth  and spread it on a table.
Now place all the rolled poories on the cloth to dry.



Let the poories dry for 2 hrs, now turn them around to dry on other side.
They  need not dry completely, its ok if they are little soft and raw.

Let them rest on paper towel so that excess oil is drained.

Kaju Katli / Kaju Burfi

Kaju Katli also known as Kaju burfi is an Indian dessert made of Cashew nuts and sugar. Kaju Katli  has been in my to do list for a quite some time. Finally I made it for this Diwali. Diamond sweet is one of   my son's favorite sweet, yes " Diamond Sweet " that is what he calls it. The texture was't that smooth that we get in market but the taste was awesome.  Typically, Cashew nuts are soaked in water overnight then ground it into paste and added to sugar syrup to make a smooth dough.
