Badhusha is my all-time favorite, right from my childhood, also have heard that making of badusha is little tough when it comes to the consistency of the batter. But lucky I have found a better recipe, through my bestie Chitra Sendhil. The sweet came out very well, tired out with small quantity and it was over in minutes. My kids loved it a lot. Let us move on to the recipe…

Instructions
 

  • • Soak pistachios in warm water for 20 mins, drain the water, peel the skin and chop them ito fine pieces.

  • • Add maida/all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt to the paste and mix well with your hands, ot would form as bread crumbs.
  • • Pour in a tbsp of water and softly knead the dough to a ball (can add if water if needed, but only add little by little).
  • • Allow the dough to rest for 30 mins, so that the dough would become soft.
  • • Take 1 cup of sugar and ½ cup of water in a kadai and keep it in medium flame, stir once in a while until it reaches the one string consistency (sugar syrup).
  • • Divide the dough into small balls, flatten them, pierce a hole in the center, and again continue rolling it a balls and continue the above steps for 3 times.
  • • Heat oil in a kadai (medium flame), gently drop the flatten badhusha one by one, swap the sides and cook until they turn golden brown (should be cooked in medium of low flame, else badhusha would be burnt and inside would not be cooked).
  • • Once when the sugar syrup starts thickening, pour in the lemon juice, give a stir, so that it would not crystalize. Remove from fire.
  • • Gently drop in the badusha to the sugar syrup and swap the side after 5 mins, after another 5 mins, remove it to a plate.
  • • Garnish with finely chopped Pistachios.

Notes

Store it in an air-tight container, once the badhushas are completely cooled, it stays fresh for 2-3 days.
