SWEET BOLI

Ingredients:

channa dhal(கடலை பருப்பு) 1 cup
gingelly oil 100 ml
kesar color(or yellow color) 1 tsp
cardamom powder 2 tsp
maida 2 cup
sugar 1 1/2 cup
ghee 1/2 cup
salt to taste

method:
Seive maida to avoid lump. Add salt, kesar powder, and mix with maida to make dough. Now add gingelly oil and soak. ( It is ok to add more gingely oil).
To make pooranam(pooranam). check channa dhall for any green channa. (if green channa is there then it will not grind properly). Pressure cook channa dhal. Give three whistle or till it is 3/4 cook.
now let it cool. Drain excess water and keep the water aside(you may need them for grinding). Grind channa dhall to a paste adding little water(you may use the boiled water we have kept). Now again check for any unground dhall. powder the sugar and add to the channa paste. along with this add cardamom powder.
To make boli.
Divide channa pooran into 15 equal size ball. Also make 15 portions of maida mix(It is ok if you cannot make proper balls out of maida). Since maida has got elasticity you can stretch them out. Now stretch them little and keep the pooran inside and fold them. Now using the rolling pin make them to thin chappathi. (be careful not to tear them). Carefully take them and put them in the tawa.
turn both side and cook as you do for chappathi. Remove from tawa and apply ghee. Serve hot. MM.............The aroma from this dish makes you mouth watering. You will surely like them.
