HOW TO MAKE INSTANT BANANA MALPUA WITH STEP BY STEP IMAGES
- In a bowl add banana and mash it well. Blend cardamom and fennel seeds to powder in a blender / in a motor and pestel. Keep it aside.
- Now to the mashed banana add wheat flour/ atta, milk powder and cardamom fennel powder. Mix well. Now add 1 cup milk gradually to make a thick batter. Now at this stage the batter will be thick so beat the batter with a whisk for a minute to get right consistency.
- After 1 minute of beating you will notice that texture is little pouring in consistency yet thick. If you wish to add little more milk you could add but do not make the batter thin as it will split in oil. Finally add baking soda to the batter and mix well. Since this is an instant malpua we are adding baking soda otherwise we can leave it aside for 2 hours for the batter to ferment.
- Heat 1 cup ghee/ oil in a pan for deep frying. Make sure the ghee is hot and not smoking. Now pour a ladle of batter and cook in medium flame. Allow the malpua to cook, when sides brown flip it and cook. When both sides are cooked to remove it from ghee/oil.
