Loula Puri [Inippu Vadai]

Day before yesterday was a Friday! Friday evenings usually begin with a snack. This Friday I prepared our favourite sweet, the Sourashtrian Loula Puri! Loula, pronounced as 'low-lay' means thin. But the apt word would  be sweet. Because this is a vada type of thing that is sweet. This sweet is made usually on Varalakhsmi vrath.

Ingredients:
1. Maida - 1 cup
2. Sugar - 1/4 cup  (I make it mild sweet always :) )
3. Rava - 2 tbsp
4. Cashews (broken) - 15 to 20
5. Oil

Recipe:
1. In a bowl, mix the maida, sugar and rava with water. The mix should be like dosa batter.
2. Keep the mix aside for 4-5 hours.
3. In a kadai, fry cashews till golden brown.
4. Transfer the cashews to the mix in the bowl.
5. Heat oil in kadai.
6. Take the batter in a deep spoon and pour it in the oil. Make sure the spoon is deep enough to make a decent size puri.
7. Fry till light golden brown and then dry it in tissue covered bowl.
