Ingredients
- Donuts
- 6 cups all purpose flour
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp cardamom powder
- 1 cup unsalted butter or ghee
- 3/4 cup yogurt
- Syrup
- 8 cups sugar
- 3 cups water
- Garnish
- ½ cup crushed pistachios
- Also: cooking oil.
Method:
Syrup — Bring water to a boil. Add sugar. Cook syrup till you have a two thread consistency.
Donuts — Mix dry flour, baking soda and cardamom. Cut in butter resembling bread crumbs. Add yogurt 1 tbsp at a time and knead to form very stiff dough.
Divide dough into 1 to 1½-inch-sized balls. Preheat vegetable oil in the deep fryer to 325ºF. Press the dough ball into a patty. Depress the center slightly.
Fry doughnuts till golden brown. Use tongs to dunk the doughnuts in the syrup and remove them. Sprinkle crushed pistachios over the doughnuts.
