Tips to Make Malpua Rabri

• Make sure your batter is thick but pourable, as given in the above Malpua recipe. If it's too thick, the Malpuas will be dense; if too thin, they'll be oily.
• Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying the Malpuas. If it's too cold, they can turn out soggy.
• Fry the Malpuas in small batches to keep the oil temperature steady and cook them evenly.
• Gently flip the Malpuas for even cooking, and don’t press down on them with the spatula.
• Let the Malpuas cool a bit before adding Rabri so it doesn’t melt.
• Taste the Rabri before adding the sugar, and adjust it to your liking.
• Add cardamom and saffron for a traditional flavour. You can also try other flavours like rose water or kewra.
