Malpua
is a sugar soaked pancake made with thickened milk. This is probably one of the
most traditional and beloved Indian sweet served as a dessert or a snack. This
Diwali festival I made this awesome dessert. This dessert tastes best with Rabri.
Traditionally, Malpuas are deep
fried in pure ghee and then soaked in sugar syrup. So they are laden with
calories…so make sure you work out to burn calories after having malpuas…
Even
though malpua is a generic Indian sweet which every region prepares differently.
There are many versions of malpua-
the famous Rajasthani mawa malpua and rabdi malpua, and famous Bengali banana
malpua.
Malpua
in northern India, particularly in Rajasthan, UP and Bihar, don’t contain
fruit. The batter is left to stand for few hours before being spooned into
kadhai of hot ghee to form a bubbling pancake, which should be soft yet crispy around the edges. The pancakes are then immersed in thick sugar
syrup. It is popular sweet to make on religious occasion of Holi. Though it a
famous street food in North part of India.
Here is the easy version of North Indian
malpua, which I call is ‘the basic
malpua recipe’. This is the one that I learnt from my mom. I hope you will like
it and will surely try. The best thing I like about this recipe is, all the
ingredients are easily available in your pantry. So you can make it anytime you
wish to have malpua.
I will also share the recipe of traditional
Rajasthani Mawa malpua recipe soon.
