Ingredients:
All purpose flour, 1 cup  
Yogurt-1/2 cup 
oil for deep-frying
Method:
In a large bowl, whisk refined flour, yogurt and sufficient water to a smooth, pancake batter-like consistency. Cover and keep in a warm place to ferment for 24 hours. Before cooking the next day, whip the batter again for a few minutes. Heat sufficient oil in a pot on medium heat to 325 degrees. Pour some batter into a pastry bag with a small straight tip. Squeeze round spirals into the hot oil and deep fry, turning them over gently a few times, until they are evenly golden and crisp. Drain and soak in cardamom sugar syrup for 2-3 minutes. Take them out of the syrup and serve hot. Make as big as possible
