    Ingredients

    The following are the ingredients needed to prepare around 2-3 cups of Shankarpali,

    • Maida / all purpose flour - 1 cup. If wheat is preferred then half a cup of wheat flour and half a cup of maida.
    • Sugar - 1/2 cup 
    • Cooking soda - a pinch (optional)
    • Cardamom powder - a pinch
    • Salt - a pinch
    • Ghee - 1 tablespoon
    • Water as required for dough
    • Oil for deep fry

    Preparation Steps

    For preparing the dough:

    1. In a large bowl add flour, a pinch of salt, baking soda,Sugar and cardamom powder. Mix the contents after adding ghee. 
    2. Add water little by little and knead it into a semi soft ball.
    3. Grease the dough with one teaspoon of oil, close it with a lid and let it rest for ten minutes.

     

    For frying:

    1. Take a heavy bottomed pan, add oil as required for deep frying and let it heat at low to medium flame.
    2. Divide the prepared dough into equal sized medium balls.
    3. Take one of those balls and flatten it into a slightly thick sheet.  Keep dusting them with flour as you flatten so that the dough won't stick to the surface.
    4. Once the sheet is ready, cut them into small diamond shapes using a pizza cutter or knife. For diamond shape, first cut straight lines then diagonal lines.
    5. Transfer these pieces to a plate.
    6. Check whether the oil is hot enough and add these pieces.
    7. Let it fry and give it a mix to cook evenly.
    8. Once it starts turning brown and the crispness is visible take them out. Place it on a strainer or tissue paper to remove excess oil.
    9. Repeat the process for remaining balls. You can fry them batch by batch.
