Bamieh is one of the most popular and delicious Iranian sweets that has its place in every celebration and occasion. However, making this tasty and crispy sweet always comes with challenges. With a new method that has recently gained attention, Bamieh can be made without the need to bake the dough and with less oil. This method allows you to have crispy and delicious Bamieh without worrying about oil absorption.
Ingredients for making market-style Bamieh
To make market-style Bamieh, you will need the following ingredients:
- 2 cups of flour
- 1 cup of water
- 1 tablespoon of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla
- 1 teaspoon of cardamom powder
- Liquid oil for frying
- Syrup or honey for decoration
How to make market-style Bamieh using the new method
To start, first place the water in a pot over medium heat and add the sugar and salt to it. Once the water comes to a boil, gradually add the flour and stir with a wooden spoon until a uniform dough is formed. Then remove the dough from the heat and let it cool slightly.
After the dough has cooled a bit, add the vanilla and cardamom powder and mix well. Then, using a piping bag, pipe the dough into the shape of Bamieh onto parchment paper. This will help the Bamieh maintain a better shape while frying and absorb less oil.
At this stage, heat the oil in a deep pan and gently fry the Bamieh in the oil. Once the Bamieh are golden and crispy, remove them from the oil and place them on a paper towel to absorb any excess oil.
Finally, decorate the prepared Bamieh with syrup or honey and serve. These Bamieh are not only delicious but also absorb less oil with this new method, making them easy to prepare at home.
