luqaimat or sweet dumpling is a delicious Ramadan dessert known among all Arabs. It is basically made of flour, corn flour, yeast, sugar and water. This is my version of luqaimat. hope you like it
ingredients:
2 cups all purpose flour
1/4 cup corn flour
1 tbs instant yeast
1 tbs granulated sugar
1 3/4 cup warm water
sugar syrup (see: A link to the sugar syrup recipe)
Steps:
watch the steps demonstrated in the video above
Sift the
flour and the corn flour together in a bowl
Add the
instant yeast, sugar and combine well
Gradually
add the water and beat it well until you get a smooth batter. It shouldn’t be
runny or too thick. Make sure that it is free of lumps.
Cover it
with cling film and keep in a dry place for 30 minutes. This is going to activate
the yeast and double the batter in size.
Deep fry the
dumplings in hot oil using two teaspoons. One teaspoon will carry the batter
and the other will sliding it into the hot oil. This technique will create the
round shape of the dumplings.
Keep
stirring the dumplings while frying them until they become golden
Pour the
cold sugar syrup over the hot dumplings
Serve them
hot or cold
