Golpapdi (20 mins microwave recipe)

Most famous and traditional Gujarati sweet that is consumed during fasting by most north-indians is Golpapdi. The aroma that arises when roasted wheat flour mix with ghee and jaggery is scrumptious. It is much easy to make using microwave. I have tried this recipe and it got published in Aval kitchen during month of August. And it is my 50th recipe I am posting this year.


Preparation time: 10 mins
Cooking time: 10 mins
Serves : 3 nos

Ingredients:

Wheat flour - 1/2 cup
Poppy seeds (kasakasa) - 1 tablespoon
Ghee- 5-6 tablespoon
Jaggery - 1/4 cup (grated/powdered)
Cardamom powder/ Elachi - 1/2 teaspoon

Method:

1. Dry roast poppy seeds and sprinkle it over greased tray.
2. Combine wheat flour and ghee in microwave safe bowl and microwave on high for 4 mins
3. When wheat flour gets roasted, add jaggery powder, cardamom powder and mix well, such that little loosy consistency is formed.
4. Microwave the mixture again on high for 30 secs.
5. Pour the mixture to greased tray, when it is warm and spread it evenly using backside of cup. A mere pressure is required while setting up, that's why press the mixture over tray using backside of cup and spread evenly to set.
6. Cut into diamond shape. Once it is completely cooled off , cut into pieces and store in airtight container.

Yummy and delicious Golpapdi is ready to be served.

Tips:

1. Finely chopped seedless dates can be added along with jaggery and mix well and microwave it for 30 sec in high power. This dates and jaggery gives instant energy, thats why this recipe is consumed during fasting.
