Instructions
 

  • First take three ingredients separately i.e. milk, ghee(clarified butter) and water.
  • Pour ghee and cold milk in a bowl and whisk it well, so it mixes properly.
  • You can use hand blender to save workload, if it’s not available, use a whisk. Blend it till ghee and milk emulsify into a smooth mixture and do not separate.(Note Ã¢â‚¬â€œ Be careful not to blend it for a long time else the ghee would separate.)
  • Sieve the maida and add into the mixture above and whisk again.
  • Make sure that no lumps are left behind and the batter formed is smooth.
  • Now add water little by little and mix it well into a smooth consistency.
  • Now add food color if you want (I have used 1 tsp turmeric powder here) . Mix it well.
  • The consistency of the batter should be such that if we drip the batter from the spoon, then it should fall like a string.
  • FRYING THE GHEVAR:
  • Take a round deep and flat-bottomed vessel.
  • Heat ghee in a deep vessel. The quantity of ghee should be half of the density of the vessel. Heat it on high flame till the ghee gets very hot.
  • Check the right temperature by dropping a small amount of the batter and see if it immediately comes up, without any delay, then its correct temperature.
  • Pour much batter into the ghee to make a big circle depending on the how thick ghevar you want to make. I used two spoonful of batter. Pour the batter slowly in one continuous thin stream in the centre of the pan.
  • Bubbles start spluttering all over the surface of oil. Let the foam settle down. If the centre point is totally covered , then use ladle to make little space in the centre and keep on pouring the batter.
  • Take 1- 2 min interval between pouring of batter.
  • Turn flame low once you have poured batter into the ghee. Let it fry until it turns light brown in color.
  • Once the ghevar has turned to brown in color, means it is cooked now.
  • Take out the ghevar in a plate lined with tissue paper. See the beautiful net has formed.
  • PREPARING THE SUGAR SYRUP:
  • Add water and sugar to pan. Bring them to boil with occasional stirring. After the boil, heat it on low flame for 5-6 minutes till you get a one-string consistency.
  • Pour a drop of syrup on a plate to check.
  • Once it cools down a little bit, take it between your thumb and a finger and see if it sticky or not. If you feel stickiness between your fingers forming a single string, then it means that your syrup is ready.
  • Turn off the flame. Let the syrup cool down.
  • Now dip the ghevar into sugar syrup for 1 to 2 min and take it out. Keep the ghevar dipped in the syrup on a plate and tilt it, so that any excess syrup gets drained.
  • Your delicious Rajasthani Ghevar is ready. Garnish the Ghevar with nuts to make it more tempting.
