Making Bhakarwadi
-
Mix besan with about 3 tablespoons of water to make a thin batter. Set aside.
-
Knead the dough for a minute before rolling, make it into ball. Lightly floured the rolling surface and flatten the dough ball. Roll into about 12-13-inch diameter.
-
Spread the filling evenly over leaving about ¼” border all around, and press the filling lightly slightly pressing.
-
Roll the sheet gently, but firmly until you have a nice firm log. Roll the log gently 6-7 times this helps keeping together, and press lightly.
-
With a sharp knife slice the both ends about 1 inch long then slice the log into 3/4 inch thick, this should make about 14 -16 Bhakarwadi.
-
Heat at least one inch of oil in a frying pan over medium high heat. To test, put a small piece of dough into the oil; dough should sizzle and come up slowly, but not change color.
-
Dip them in the batter from both sides one at a time and drop them slowly into the hot oil. Fry the Bhakarwadi until both sides are golden-brown, turning occasionally. Each batch will take 7-8 minutes to cook.
-
Bhakarwadi are ready to serve.
