How this kind of dish is made

The source documents this dish but not a method specific to it. The steps below describe how dishes of this kind are generally made.

  1. Mix the batter or dough until smooth.

  2. Shape the pieces or pipe the batter into hot oil and fry until golden.

  3. Dip the hot sweets briefly in saffron-rosewater syrup.

  4. Drain on a rack before serving.

Cook's notes

Keep both oil temperature and syrup concentration consistent. The sweet should be fully cooked before it goes into the syrup so the texture does not become doughy.

Background

This sweet or dessert is known in multiple parts of Iran and, depending on the region, may appear at Nowruz, gatherings, nazri occasions, or everyday hospitality. Recipes and shapes can vary between households.
