Mauritian Roth Recipe (a form of offering made especially on the occasion of Navratri)

Ingredients:  1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 ½ cup of milk powder, ¾ cup of sugar, 1 ¼ tablespoon of melted ghee, water to make the dough, ½ teaspoon cardamom powder, 1 teaspoon of anise seeds,  oil for frying.

Method: Mix together the flour, milk powder, sugar, cardamom powder and anise seeds in a large mixing bowl and make a small well in the centre, add the melted ghee.  Do the “rubbing-in method” with the ghee and the dry ingredients with your fingertips until the mixture looks like crumbs. Moreover, add water gradually until the mixture comes together as a soft dough. Leave dough to stand for 10 minutes before dividing into small round shape. Flatten the small round-shaped dough. Add them in the pan; let them cook until they turn brownish in colour on both sides.

You can cook these anytime you want. They take less time and are very easy to cook. They taste great with a cup of hot tea.
