Malpua

It has been long since I blogged. Lately I came across a new recipe i.e, 'Malpua'. Malpua is a very popular sweet to make on the Hindu festvals Holi and Diwali.
It is a fritter or pancake served as a dessert or a snack in the Indian subcontinent.
There are several variations, using ingredients. The batter for malpuas in some areas also encompasses fruits.

Ingredients:
4 tbsp plain four
1 tbsp powdered sugar
1 cup milk
1 tsp Grated Coconut (gari)
Finely sliced Cashew nut and Almond
