Crispy Phenori or Chiroti| Crunchy and Sweet Christmas treat| mangalore Special

Chiroti (or Chirote) or Phenori is a traditional sweet from Indian cuisine, particularly popular in Karnataka and Maharashtra. It's a flaky, deep-fried pastry made with fine layers, garnished with powdered sugar or sugar syrup. Here's a simple recipe for making Chiroti:
Ingredients
For the Dough:
All-purpose flour (maida) - 1 cup
Water - as needed
A pinch of salt
For the Paste:
Rice flour - 2 tbsp
Ghee - 2 tbsp
For Frying:
Oil or ghee - for deep frying
For Garnishing:
Powdered sugar - 1/4 cup
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, salt.
Gradually add water to form a stiff yet pliable dough. Knead well for 8-10 minutes.
Cover the dough and let it rest for 30 minutes.
Step 2: Make the Paste
Mix the rice flour and ghee into a smooth paste. This paste will be used to layer the dough.
Step 3: Roll and Layer
Roll the layered sheets tightly like a cylinder and cut them into 1-inch pieces.
Flatten each piece gently into small discs while retaining the layers.
Step 4: Deep Fry
Heat oil or ghee in a deep pan over medium heat.
Fry the discs until golden brown and crisp. Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Step 5: Garnish
Sprinkle powdered sugar over the fried chiroti while they are warm. Alternatively, you can dip them in a light sugar syrup for extra sweetness.
Serving Suggestions
Serve chiroti as a festive sweet, often accompanied by warm milk.
It’s a delightful treat for celebrations like Diwali or weddings.
Enjoy the light, crispy, and sweet indulgence!
