End of Durga
Puja and Navaratri is on 10th day and we celebrate the day as
DASHAMI or DASHERA. And this is the day when we all pray to Maa Durga for blessings
and a prosperous year till Maa Durga comes
next year. We touch our elder’s feet for seeking blessings. Wish all my friends
and followers happy Bijoya Dashami and Dashera.
In this
special day we used to make some sweet dishes for Misti mukh and for that I made
some AMRITTI or IMARTI though the shapes are not that good but the taste is
really good. Hope you all like my recipe.
Ingredients:
1. Split black
gram skinless or Biulir Dal : 1 small cup.
2.Any unscented
Rice: ¼ cup.
3.Orrange
food color: Few drops.
4.Sugar: 3
cup.
5.Water 2
cup.
6.Few
saffron strands.
7.Few green
cardamom.
8.Few
pistachios.
9.Few drop
of ghee.
10.Sunflower
oil for frying.
Process:
In a heavy
bottomed vessel add the sugar water cardamom and make thick sugar syrup when it
starts boiling add the saffron strands. The sugar syrup needs to be thick but
not make it too thick. Keep the sugar syrup warm.
Now in a
bowl soak the rice and dal for 1 hour, now in a blender make a smooth batter
with the soaked dal and rice with one cup of water.
Now add the
food color and grind it once again. Now pour the batter in a bowl and add the
ghee and mix well.
Pour enough
oil in a heavy bottomed vessel in very low flame.
Pour the
batter in a cup cake designer container as I use or you can use a zip lock bag
also and cut a small hole in one corner.
Now press
the bag or the container and make one circle first on the oil then make some
small small round shape circle on top of that or you can make your Amritt’s as
u want.
Fry both
the sides in very low flame till it become cruncy, now soak them into the sugar
syrup for 4 to 5 mints, and then remove from sugar syrup and garnish the pistachios.
Enjoy your
Hot Amritti’s on the specila day with all your friends and family.
