In a bowl, mix all-purpose flour, salt, and clarified butter (ghee) or oil together.

Gradually add water to form a semi-soft dough.

Cover the dough and let it rest for 25 minutes.

In a pot, add sugar and water and heat until the sugar dissolves.

Add lemon juice, cardamom powder, and saffron strands (optional).

Cook until the syrup reaches a light string consistency, then turn off the heat and set it aside.

Take the rested dough and divide it into small pieces.

Roll out five sheets of dough and apply water on each sheet.

Roll each sheet tightly and seal the edges by pressing them with your hands.

Cut the rolled sheets into small pieces.

Heat oil in a pan and fry the pieces until they turn golden and crispy.

Dip the fried pieces into the hot sugar syrup, coating them well.

Let the coated pieces cool and serve once they are set.
