Cheesy Cigar Rolls

11:28 AM

Well, this is my mom's recipe which she used to make during Ramadan, we as kids used to finish it off immediately, sometimes fighting over for who had more :). She used to make it plain, with cream cheese or even chocolate filling, all of them tastes yummy!!! After years of staying away from mom, and now being a mom myself, I thought to give it a try and make it for my kid, so here it is....



Ingredients:
Samosa sheets - 20 piece, thawed
Cream cheese - as required
All purpose flour - 2 tbsp mixed with 5 tbsp water
Sugar - 1/3 cup
Water - 1/3 cup
Cardamoms - 3
Lemon juice - 1 tbsp
Oil - for frying
Method:
In a saucepan add sugar, water and cardamom and simmer for 10 minutes. Add lemon juice and boil for a minute

Place the cheese on one end of the samosa sheet and fold it in a triangular shape by bringing both the edges downward

Roll the pastry until the edge leaving a little portion

Apply the flour paste on it and seal the edges by rolling it completely

Repeat with all the samosa sheets

In a pan heat oil on medium heat

Add few rolls at a time and fry till golden. Flip and repeat the same

Remove and place on paper towels to drain extra oil

Drizzle sugar syrup over it and serve!!!
