Madatha Kaja(sweet rolls)in a diff look


I tried a very different recipe in a different way.I did Madatha Kajas...A very popular andhra sweet,Tapeswaram is very famous in doing madatha kajas.The difference is the shape of Kajas..Check my version of doing Madatha Kajas.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup-All purpose flour/Maida
3/4 tbsp-Baking Soda
Ghee
Rice Flour
Cardamon/Elachi Powder
Water
Oil

For Sugar Syrup
1 1/2cup- Sugar
1/2 cup-Water
Directions:
Mix maida,baking soda and elachi powder with water similar to chapathi dough.
Now make the as small balls...roll like chapathis.
Now on that add ghee and rice flour..make sure these should be distributed evenly and entirely.

Now roll the chapathi and cut into small rolls
Press the each roll with hand and make them flat
Heat oil a heavy bottomed vessel fry the rolls till it turns to golden brown color

Preperation of Sugar Syrup:
Meanwhile prepare syrup
In a vessel pour sugar and water.
Sugar melts and stir ocassionally...till there is thick consistency.
Atlast pour those fried rolls in the sugar syrup..make sure the syrup should be hot enough while ur transeferring rolls.
Take rolls from the syrup and serve.
Note:I want to make a diff shape,so i tried this.For actual kaja shape my mom told to cut the chapathi into ribbons and roll them carefully.
