यसरि बनाउनुस मालपुवा कहिले फुटदैन। How to Make Malpua at Home

Ingredients

• 500 g All-Purpose Flour (sifted)
• 250 g Semolina (fine semolina (samoline))
• 250 g Granulated Sugar (white sugar)
• 1 Tbsp Fennel Seeds (whole seeds)
• 0.5 tsp Cardamom Powder (ground green cardamom)
• 1 tsp Baking Powder (double‑acting)
• 200 ml Lukewarm Water (add gradually to achieve thick batter)
• 1 L Vegetable Oil (for deep frying, at least 2‑inch depth)

Instructions

1. Measure Dry Ingredients

   Weigh 500 g all‑purpose flour, 250 g semolina, 250 g sugar, 1 Tbsp fennel seeds, ½ tsp cardamom powder, and 1 tsp baking powder into a large mixing bowl.

   Time: PT5M

2. Combine Dry Ingredients

   Stir the measured dry ingredients together until evenly distributed.

   Time: PT2M

3. Add Lukewarm Water Gradually

   Pour lukewarm water a little at a time, mixing continuously, until a thick batter forms. The batter should be thicker than pancake batter because the sugar will thin it when it melts.

   Time: PT5M

4. Knead the Batter

   Mix and knead the batter for 4–5 minutes until it is smooth, glossy, and free of lumps.

   Time: PT5M

5. Rest the Batter

   Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the batter rest at room temperature for at least 20 minutes (overnight is ideal for extra fluffiness).

   Time: PT20M

6. Heat the Oil

   Pour 1 L vegetable oil into the wide pan, ensuring a depth of about 2 inches. Heat over medium‑high heat until the oil reaches roughly 350°F (175°C).

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: 350°F

7. Fry the Malpuwa

   Using a spatula, gently drop a ladleful of batter into the hot oil. The batter should puff up and rise on its own. Fry 2–3 minutes on the first side until golden brown, then flip and fry another 2–3 minutes.

   Time: PT30M

   Temperature: 350°F

8. Drain and Serve

   Remove the fried malpuwa with a slotted spoon and place on paper towels to absorb excess oil. Serve warm with mutton curry or a vegetarian potato‑cauliflower curry.

   Time: PT2M
