Instructions
- In a bowl mix maida, sugar and Fennel seeds. Mix in dessicated coconut and dry ginger powder. Add soaked raisins. Mix in powdered cashews and almonds.
- Rub this mixture with your palms, so that heat generated with friction of palms, melts the sugar. Add water gradually and knead a stiff dough.
- If the dough kneaded soft, the sugar in it would loosen it further and it would be difficult to cook it. Cover the dough and keep it aside for 10 minutes.
- Smear hands with ghee and roll the dough thick in round disc. Shape it with round cookie cutter Nd remove the excess dough.
- Place the coconut pieces( cut in to length wise) in crisscross,on round Susroot.In a wide pan shallow fry it down side. Keep pouring hot ghee over Susroot with ladle. It will take 5 to 7 minutes. Once it's golden brown on down side, flip it slowly.
- Cook on slow flame for 2 minutes and remove it on kitchen towel/ tissue paper.
- Cool it a bit and place coins in round shape in corners of Susroot.
- store Susroot in airtight container.
