Timpul de preparare: 1 ora


Makes: 6-7 servings


Shelf life: 2 days refrigerated


Nota: The same dough may be made extra and a few 'bhakris' (small thickish rotis) roasted to go along with the dal dhokli. If using many hours after making, and the dal has become semisolid, no problem. Just add some boiling hot water, and reheat to bring it to a boil. Check taste and adjust!

ingrediente:


110grame de faina (1/4 pound)
110g cornmeal (1/4 pound)
2 tbsp. baking powder
110grame de zahar (1/4 pound)
1 tsp. sare
1 ceasca de apa (sau cum doriti)
(Unii folosesc oua si unt, dar eu prefer aceasta reteta simpla.) 


Metoda:


Mix the flour, salt, baking powder and cornmeal together in a bowl then mix the sugar in the water making it very sweet. Ensure you make a dough, take small portions and roll them into small balls, long or any shape that you so desire; then you are ready to fry.

N.B.To make fried dumpling simply take out the cornmeal and sugar and follow through with the same procedure.

*other delights are Gratercake, Drops and Gizzarda. All three are made with coconut as an ingredient along with sugar. However flour is used to make a base for the coconut.

All of you have probably heard of these items but I can assure that no one has tried these with your little nationality touch. Therefore, I will not go much into detail. I will only focus on the twist in these dishes. Also as a vegetarian I will only focus on these aspects.
