# Malpua – Traditional Banarasi Sweet

Malpua is a traditional Indian mithai loved for its golden, lace-crisp edges, soft centre, and delicious sweetness from sugar syrup. Prepared with refined wheat flour, full-cream milk, khoya and pure desi ghee, this classic sweet develops a rich flavour and a delicate texture through slow, careful cooking.

Enjoy the traditional taste of Malpua from Shri Annapurna Sweets. Made with milk, khoya, aromatic green cardamom and fennel, each malpua is fried in desi ghee and briefly soaked in sugar syrup for a satisfying balance of crisp edges and a soft, syrup-soaked centre. Finished with slivers of pistachio and almonds, it is a delightful choice for festive celebrations, family gatherings, gifting or enjoying after meals.

##  **How It's Made**

The batter is rested overnight — flour, full-cream milk and hand-grated khoya, whisked with green cardamom and a little fennel, then left to ferment slowly so the malpua fries up light instead of dense. Each one is poured by ladle into shallow desi ghee and never spread by hand; a batter of the right consistency spreads on its own into that thin, lace-like rim. It fries on a low flame until the edge turns amber and crisp, then goes straight into warm one-string chashni for a few seconds only — long enough to sweeten it through, short enough to keep the centre soft. Slivered pista and badam go on last, by hand, just before the box is sealed.

##  Storage Instructions

Refrigerate on arrival in an airtight container and consume within the shelf life mentioned on the pack. Warm for 20–30 seconds before serving — malpua is at its best just short of hot, when the syrup loosens and the edges crisp up again. Do not freeze, as the syrup separates on thawing.
