Doodhpuri is a popular Bengali snack that consists of deep-fried doughnuts coated in a sweet syrup made from jaggery and sugar.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup semolina flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

• 1/4 cup ghee or oil
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon vinegar

Jaggery Syrup

• 1 cup jaggery powder
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 2 cups water

Doodhpuri Sauce (if applicable)

Mix the following:

• 2 tablespoons ghee or oil
• 2 tablespoons grated jaggery
• 2 tablespoons sugar

Recipe Steps

1. Mixing the Dough

In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients and mix well. In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients until smooth. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and knead for about 10 minutes until a smooth dough forms.

2. Resting the Dough

Cover the dough with plastic wrap or a damp cloth and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.

3. Frying the Doughnuts

Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, pinch small pieces of dough into the oil to form dumplings. Fry until golden brown, then remove with a slotted spoon.

4. Soaking in Syrup

Dip fried doughnuts into the jaggery syrup and coat evenly.

Optional: Chopped Nuts or Cardamom Powder

• Sprinkle chopped nuts or cardamom powder on top of the jaggery syrup for added flavor and texture.
