Ingredients:
All Purpose Flour/ Maida-2 cups
Sugar-3/4 cup
Salt-a pinch
Ghee-3 tbs
Coconut Milk-3/4 – 1 cup
Oil-To Deep Fry
Procedure:
1. In a bowl mix flour, sugar, salt and ghee.
2. Add coconut milk little by little and knead to make a firm dough.
3. Th esugar will start melting and the dough will become loose, so make a firm dough first and knead to make a soft dough.
4. If you feel that the dough has become very soft, dust flour and knead till you get the perfect soft non sticky dough.
5. Pinch off small balls out of the dough and roll into a thin disc.
6. With a pastry cutter or knife, cut the disc into small squares measureing 1″ *1″.
7. Stick two opposite corners and twist.
8. Then bring the two remaining corners to the back and twist.
9. Twist it tightly so that the kormolas retain shape during frying.
10. Heat oil. When medium hot, turn flame to low and drop some kormolas in the pan.
11. Deep fry until slightly brown.
12. Remove from oil and place on a plate. You can see that the kormolas will get a nice golden colour even after you remove them from the oil.
13. When cool, store in airtight jar and serve during snack time.
Kormolas
This cute looking kormolas are similar to the diamond biscuits which mom used to make. The only difference is the shape of the kormolas. These are prepared for Christmas in Goa. When I was browsing through Goan recipes, I couldn’t take my eyes off these beautiful flower like cuties. So I decided to make it and post it for the third day of Blogging Marathon #26 Week3. The trick of getting nice crispy kormolas is to deep fry them on low flame and removing them from oil when still soft. Because the kormaolas keep on cooking even after removing from oil. By this way you can get nice golden brown and crisp kormolas. Else you will end up with darker kormolas.
Mix all the ingredients in a bowl.
Add coconut milk and knead to a firm dough.
Roll out a portion of the dough into a thin disc and cut into small squares using a pastry cutter.
Join opposite ends of the square.
Twist it.
Now bring the other two corners to the opposite side.
Twist those two.
Shape all the squares into kormolas.
Deep fry until brown on low flame.
Aren’t they cute??
