Add water and the sugar mixture in a saucepan and boil till you get a sticky semi thick syrup.Don't wait for any string consistency.

Switch off the stove and add the lemon juice.

Take a bowl and add all the ingredients for the dough. Sprinkle milk and form a soft dough.

Badam Puri

Cover the dough  and rest it for 5 minutes. Roll out the dough to a very thin sheet, cut into circles using a cutter.

Fold the circle into half and again fold the triangle into half ( see the picture).

Slightly press and prick a clove on top, this is done for the layers to be in place while frying.

Heat oil in a kadai and deep fry these triangles in medium low flame till crisp and light brown on all sides. Remove and dip them in the sugar syrup and leave it for 30 seconds.
Arrange them in a plate garnish with powdered almonds or coconut flakes on top and enjoy!
