·       Flour -1 small cup (I used tea cup)

·       Wheat flour (Atta) -1 cup.

·       Corn flour – heaped 2 tsp.

·       White oil /Ghee -2 ½ tbsp.

·       Water –as required to make a dough (I required little less than ½ cup

(Dough will not be much hard or soft)

·       Salt -1/4 tsp.

For sugar syrup:

·       Sugar -1 cup.(I used measurement cup)

·       Water -1/2 cup.

Method:

·       Take a container and mix flour, wheat flour, salt. Mix well.

·       Add oil/ghee (I used white oil) to flour atta mixture and mix well.

(After mixing ,for testing just take some amount of flour mix into your palm and close your palm once . you will notice ,the amount of flour mix that you took into your palm will remain binding itself and will not fall apart, then have to understand ”Moyam” is ready for Nimki.)

·       Pour water slowly and make soft dough by kneading well.

·       Make sure that you keep the prepared dough Covered and take oil in kadai for deep frying Nimki.

·       Divide four small and moderately equal dough balls from the prepared dough which was kept previously.

·       Use a rolling pin to flatten each ball like a round roti. Don’t flatten too much.

·       Spread little amount of flour over the base and also at bottom of flatten dough before cutting into square shaped.

(It helps to separate each square from other and prevent sticking.)

·       Now cut into small squares with knife or pizza cutter and fry these into hot oil. When fry don’t keep the flame always high.

·       Keep fried fresh Nimki apart.

·       Finally for sugar syrup take a pan .Add water and sugar. Let’s it boil. Sugar will dissolve very quickly. Don’t remove from heat; allow the syrup for boil at medium high heat for another 6-7 minutes to thick.

·       Now sink a spoon and pull it out from pan .If the syrup stick to the spoon it is ready. Don’t boil further otherwise it will solidify.

·       Quickly remove from heat and carefully add fresh fried Nimki to syrup. Mix gently and cool it.

·       That’s it, it is done , keep it in an airtight container after it cool down.
