As I most recently have a little time, I was looking on the web yesterday. Trying to get new, intriguing thoughts, inspirational dishes that We have never tried before, to amaze my loved ones with. Searching for quite some time but could not find too many interesting things. Just before I thought to give up on it, I ran across this tempting and simple dessert simply by chance. It seemed so mouth-watering on its photos, that called for prompt actions.

It absolutely was not so difficult to imagine the way it’s made, how it tastes and just how much my husband will want it. Mind you, it is rather easy to impress him when it comes to treats. Yes, I’m a lucky one. Or maybe he is.Anyway, I went to the blog: Suncakemom and used the step-by-step instuctions that had been combined with nice images of the process. It really makes life faster and easier. I could imagine that it’s a slight hassle to shoot snap shots down the middle of baking in the kitchen as you may ordinarily have gross hands thus i genuinely appreciate the commitment she devote to make this blogpost and recipe conveniently followed.

That being said I am empowered presenting my own, personal recipes in the same way. Many thanks the thought.

I had been tweaking the original recipe create it for the taste of my family. I must say it turned out a great outcome. They loved the flavour, the thickness and enjoyed getting a delicacy like this during a stressful workweek. They quite simply wanted lots more, many more. Thus next time I am not going to make the same miscalculation. I’m going to double the quantity .

Mix the ingredients in a bowl by hand until the dough comes together into a ball. If it sticks to the hand or the side of the bowl, add more flour to it. If it seems dry and falling apart, add more water to it.

Add oil to the dough ball and knead it further.

Flatten the dough into a circle shape.

Divide the dough into eight equal parts.

Make balls from the eight dough parts.

Flatten the dough balls into ½ ” / 1.5cm tall circles. This would yield about 4″/10cm wide circles.

With an oily hand rub together the cracks on the side of the dough if present.

Pour oil into a pan and fry one side of the circle shaped dough on medium heat. It takes about 5 minutes to achieve a golden brown color and hard outer layer.

Flip over the dough and fry the other side as well.

When both sides are done place them into the oven for 10 – 15 minutes on 350°F / 180°C.

Fill with any filling of choice.
