Imarti Recipe
Ingredients
1. Urad dal (2cups)
2. ground cardamom (1/2tsp)
3. water (300ml)
4. ghee to fry (500gms)
5. sugar (3c)
6. saffron color (a pinch)
Method of preparation:-
1. Take urad dal; soak it overnight in plenty of water. Next day wash it and drain it. Grind it in a grinder to a fine thick batter. Put water in the batter little by little.
2. Add saffron color and then mix it well. After grinding beat the dal well by hand until it gets fluffy. Keep it aside for about 3 hours. If the weather is cold then keep it for more then 3 hours.
3. Meanwhile make the sugar syrup by boiling water with sugar until it
gets the 1 tar consistency. Add the cardamom powder to the syrup. Now to make the imarti, take 12” by 12” thick cloth, make a hole in the centre.
4. Place it over the tumbler and pour some batter in it. Hold the cloth like a pouch and press out the imarti like icing. Now give the shape to the imarti by making first ring and then make small ringlets all along the ring.
5. Form the imartis in the hot ghee and fry them over low heat to make them crispy. Take out the imartis from ghee, drain them and dip in hot syrup. Soak them for 3-4 minutes, drain them and serve them.
Make – 20 imartis
Making time – 1 hour (excluding soaking and keeping time)
