Sweet Maida Diamond Cut Biscuits

Of all the authentic deep fried snacks, I feel this is the easiest one with minimal ingredients.The sweet and spicy version of this maida biscuits needless to say are very addictive and one cant resist with just a single diamond biscuit  ;-)

Ingredients:

• All purpose flour - 2 cup
• Powdered Sugar - 3/4 cup
• Ghee/Oil - 2 tsp (Heat it or microwave it for 15 sec)
• Oil - to deep fry
• Salt - 1/2 tsp

Procedure:

In a mixing bowl, mix flour, salt, sugar and warm ghee.

Add water and make into a smooth dough. Consistency should be like chapathi dough.  Spray some oil on top and keep aside covered for 30 mins.

 Knead the dough again and divide into equal parts. Roll as thin as possible evenly with generous dusting. With the use of pizza cutter/ knife, cut out thin strips. Cut diagonally to make little diamonds. Gently peel using a spatula and set aside.

 Heat oil in a kadai and when it is hot, sprinkle the diamonds into the oil. Cook in medium flame turning around to make sure it is evenly cooked.

Once done remove from oil and drain in tissue paper. Cool and store in air tight containers.
