Mithe Shakkarpara ( Sweet, Crispy, Fried Pastry Dough )

This was something my mother used to make a lot when we were very young. I remember she would always have one of the plastic jars on her countertop filled with these treats. We would snack on this anytime we felt peckish. Today I am continuing that tradition, wanting to share it with my family.

These sweet, crispy fried dough treats go great with a hot cup of tea. If you roll these a little on the thicker side you will get a nice crunchy-on-the-outside-and-soft-on-the-inside shakkarpara, if however you are not into soft and chewy, just roll these a little thinner and then they will be crispy all over.
