Cinnamon Luqaimat Balls
Golden, crispy Luqaimat balls filled with creamy goodness and coated in cinnamon sugar!
Ingredients
- 1 pack of Luqaimat mix from Foster Clark’s
- 1 Tbsp custard powder from Foster Clark’s
- 1 small cup of yoghurt
- Warm water (added gradually, about 1 cup)
- Cream cheese for filling
- Sugar and cinnamon for coating
For the white sauce:
- 50g room-temperature butter
- 100g room-temperature cream cheese
- 1 tsp vanilla essence from Foster Clark’s
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 pack whipping cream from Foster Clark’s
Blend all ingredients in a food processor or mix with a little liquid milk if the consistency is too thick.
Preparation
- In a bowl, combine the Luqaimat mix, yeast, and custard powder. Add yoghurt and knead.
- Gradually add warm water until a smooth, cohesive dough forms. Let it rest until it doubles in size.
- Shape the dough into small balls, stuff each with a bit of cream cheese, and roll into smooth spheres.
- Deep fry in hot oil until they begin to brown, then lower the heat and turn them until evenly golden.
- Remove from the oil, coat with the sugar and cinnamon mixture, and toss gently.
- Drizzle with the white sauce and caramel as desired.
