rose cookies

 

rose cookies

Serves 6   Preparation time 1 hour

Ingredients

½ kg refined flour

250 grams rice flour (optional)                              

1 cup coconut milk

200 grams sugar                              

6 eggs beaten well

½ teaspoon salt                        

1 litre oil for frying

1 teaspoon vanilla essence      

1 teaspoon baking powder

Mix all the ingredients together to form a smooth slightly thick batter.

Heat oil in a deep pan till it reaches boiling point. Now place the rose cookie mould into the oil to get hot. When the mould is hot enough dip it half way only into the batter and put it back immediately into the boiling oil. Shake the mould gently to separate the cookie from it. Heat the mould again and repeat the process. Fry rose cookies till brown. Continue in this way till the batter is finished.

Note: The batter will stick to the rose cookie mould with a hissing sound only if it is sufficiently hot otherwise it will just slide off the mould
