Ingredients
Maida one cup, ghee (melted butter) - half cup, sugar - between 2 to 2.5 cups, milk powder - half cup
Step 1
Keep kadai on the gas and heat it, put the ghee and melt it - keep the gas burner on low until the ghee melts. Slowly add the maida while stirring and roast it to a typical dosa batter ( the mixture should look like the viscocity of normal dosa batter). Keep heating slowly till it reaches this state. Now switch off the stove and add the milk powder, slowly stirring while adding the milk power. Then add vanilla essence. Place this down from the stove and keep it aside.
Step 2
Now in a separate kadai take half cup of water add the sugar heat the mixture till it becomes a syrup that is well mixed. Watch the syrup carefully until one drop of sugar syrup dropped in water goes down like a small ball - this is the right consistency of the syrup to indicate that the sugar syrup is now ready to mix with the maida paste already kept aside. Now switch off the stove; then mix the paste with syrup well; stir slowly until everything is completely mixed and integerated.
Step 3
Take a plate, apply a thin layer of ghee on the plate and spread the sugar mixed paste uniformly to appear as a smooth plane. You can now slice this into pieces suitable to your taste.
Enjoy your maida cake
