Kashmiri Recipes
RECIPE NO. 30
'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'.
Sweet dough is made as in the case of 'Roth',
vice RECIPE NO. 28.
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.
