MILK POLI - A SWEET DELICACY

Hi friends,
            am back.  It was my birthday a few days back and my mother made this all time favourite dish of mine :):):). MILK POLI 

I'll share the recipe with you all so you can all enjoy what I've been doing all these years :):):)
This dish has got 2 parts :

• the poli
• flavoured milk.

INGREDIENTS:

       FOR POLI:

• ALL PURPOSE FLOUR ................ 1 cup
• SEMOLINA                    ................ 3 tsp
• SALT                               ...............  1/4 tsp
• WATER                           ...............  enough to make dough
• OIL                                  ...............  enough to fry.

       FOR FLAVOURED MILK :

• MILK                   .......................... 1 litre
• SUGAR                ..........................  as you wish :) :) I PREFER LOT :)
• CARDAMOM     ........................... just for flavour so use as much or little you want/ it can be                                                                   replaced with any other flavouring agent
• SAFFRON           .......................... a pinch

METHOD:

       MILK :    

• Let the milk boil well until it condenses to thick consistency... the thicker the milk the better the taste.
• Drop a few strands of saffron in warm water for it to let its colour out and then mix it with the boiling milk (enjoy the colour change... its totally natural)
• Powder the cardamom and add it to milk.
• Also add the sugar and mix well.
• Let the milk simmer.

 POLI :

• Mix flour, semolina, salt together.
• Semolina is to give more depth to the dough.
• Add enough water to make the dough not to thick not too runny.
• Cover it with a cloth and let it rest for 10-15 mins.
• Now roll them into small pieces.
• Roll those small pieces of dough into flat circular polis.
• Now fold the circle into half.
• Now add oil to a pot kept in stove and let it boil.
• Now fry the poli just until they're golden brown.
• Add the fried poli into simmering milk.
• Repeat this for all polis and see that there is enough milk for all polis
• Let polis soak for atleast 30mins.
• Now they're ready to serve :):):)
