'Laed'

(E-Small spherical fried sweet scones of Wheat flour)
(H-'Laddu')

These are mostly made for offering as 'Prasad' to 'Shri Ganesha' during His 'Puja'.

Preparation

Sweet dough is made as in the case of 'Roth', vice RECIPE NO. 28.

Method of Cooking

Take a small quantity of the dough at a time, and roll it into a 'Rope' between palms, greased with a little 'Ghi'. Coil it on a finger, take it off and then, between palms, roll into a small ball of the size of a marble or somewhat bigger. After preparing these small balls out of the whole dough deep fry these in 'Ghi', on moderate heat, to a golden brown colour. These are generally prepared from a small quantity of flour, upto a kg. The coiled small round scones cool down to delicious cookies, called 'Laed' in Kashmiri.
