For the day 2 themed under 4 ingredients recipe in Blogging Marathon edition #69 is a crunchy sweet cum snack,nimki.

Sweet nimki is a crunchy sweet,coated with sugar syrup,made using all purpose flour..The method for sweet nimki is same as sweet sev except flour based pastry is deep fried and used instead of sev..

This recipe I learnt from a friend of mine and its my kids'favorite.Here I made sugar syrup and add the fried nimkis to coat it well.If you are not comfortable in making sugar syrup,toss the fried nimki with powdered sugar when it is hot.The nimkis needs to be fried in a low flame to get a crunchy and golden color.
