Singals (Indian Pancakes)

Singals (Indian Pancakes)

If you are a kumaoni ,poojas(Prayers) at home can never be completed without this sweet dish.It is Indian Pancake having a spiral shape like of a Jalebi(again a popular Indian sweet dish). When I got married it was like, am Big Zero in cooking!! and to make a Singal is a craft!! ha..ha..For few early years of my marriage I was totally dependent on my Mom in Law!! -- A Great Cook for all kumaoni dishes.When my husband has to move to this new place for work....I with kids also move, so you see
....Phew!!Children love Singal and husband too!!
So I decided to be on my own!!First few attempts were total failure.. some times the sugar content was less sometimes moyan(Cow Ghee) was more and when cooked in oil it spread and sometimes shape was shapeless(never a spiral).but my constant attempt to make Singals finally paid.Now I can cook them nicely though my endeavor to cook them like my Mom in Law is a distant dream!!
