TASTY VETTU CAKE

TASTY VETTU CAKE

All purpose flour: 1 cup

Rava(semolina) :1/4 cup

Egg: 1 ( I used a large egg)

Baking powder: ¼ teaspoon

Sugar: 1/4cup

Cardamom powder : ½  tsp

 oil:  for frying

method

In a medium bowl mix, flour,rava, cardamom  powder and baking powder set aside. In a medium sauce pot add sugar and egg and when it slightly beaten add the flour mixture to form smooth dough and set aside for 40 minutes resting. (Add only enough flour to make smooth dough).When you are ready to fry, heat  oil in a deep bottomed pan. Shape the smooth dough into a log and then cut them into five 2x2.5 inch piece squares. Make a deep cut in the center and again one opposite to the first cut. Fry them in medium heat  .Make sure that oil is not too hot then outside gets burns earlier and inner dough will not be cooked. Once they are cooked remove from the oil using a slotted spoon and transfer to kitchen towel to remove excess oil.
