Maida : 3 cups
Butter : 1/4 cup

The amount of water should be just enough to soak the sugar and make a syrup of one thread consistency. Remove from the flame and set aside. Divide the dough into small lemon size balls. Flatten them a little and make a dimple in the middle. Heat oil in a pan for deep frying the badushas. Deep fry the badushas on medium flame till golden brown color. When they turn to golden brown color, remove from the oil and put them into sugar syrup. Soak the badushas in sugar syrup for 5 minutes. Take the badushas out of the syrup and let it cool completely. Store in a airtight container.
