KalKals

My thumb had a workout... ;) Thank you Sahra


Kalkals is a somali and Indian dessert.



Ingredients


500 g of all purpose flour
100 g of butter or margarine
1/4 teaspoon of baking powder

Ingredients for coating

100 g of sugar
2 teaspoons of cardamon powder

Lets get Cooking


In a bowl, add the flour and the melted margarine and mix. Make the mixture look like bread crumbs.

Add water gradually while kneading.

Make a smooth dough and let it sit for 20 minutes under a moist cloth.

Cut the dough in small balls, then take each ball and flatten on a new or clean hair comb.



Add some oil on the comb if the dough sticks to it.

Deep fry the kalkals until brown.








Syrup Time.

Melt the sugar in a small amount of water. Add the kalkals into the syrup and flip until all the kalkals are coated.

I like my kalkals cold so i place them in the fridge :)
