HOLIGE (FLATBREAD WITH SWEET RAISIN FILLING)

Holige (Flatbread with Sweet Raisin Filling) image

Authentic holige is a dessert made in Karnataka, South India, during festivals and special occasions. This delicacy is traditionally made with a dough filled with either bele hoorna (dal stuffing) or kobbari hoorna (coconut stuffing). I tried and tested this raisin (drakshi hoorna) holige recipe and it was a big hit during a recent festival celebration at home. It tastes heavenly with a side of almond-flavored milk (badam milk).

Ingredients

1 cup fine semolina flour
¾ cup whole wheat flour
¼ teaspoon ground turmeric
⅛ teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
¾ cup water, or as needed
¾ cup raisins
5 dates, pitted
½ cup white sugar
½ cup shredded coconut
2 tablespoons mixed nuts (cashews, almonds, walnuts)
1 tablespoon poppy seeds, toasted
¼ teaspoon freshly ground cardamom, or more to taste
¼ teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
¼ cup whole wheat flour
¼ cup ghee (clarified butter)

Steps:

Combine semolina flour, 3/4 cup whole wheat flour, turmeric, and salt in a large bowl. Mix in 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Stir in enough water to form a soft dough.
Brush remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil over dough. Cover dough with a damp cloth or paper towel and let rest, 2 to 3 hours.
Process raisins and dates into a paste in a food processor or high-powdered blender. Add sugar, coconut, mixed nuts, poppy seeds, cardamom, and nutmeg; blend until thoroughly combined.
Roll raisin and date mixture into golfball-sized balls.
Roll dough into 1-inch balls. Sprinkle 1/4 cup whole wheat flour over a flat work surface. Roll 1 ball of dough out into a thin circle; place 1 raisin and date ball in the center. Wrap dough around the ball and pinch to seal. Roll back out into a circle. Repeat with remaining dough and raisin and date balls.
Melt 1 teaspoon of ghee in a large skillet. Cook dough until brown spots appear, about 2 minutes. Add 1 teaspoon ghee to the top of the dough and flip. Cook until brown spots appear on the second side, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a serving plate. Repeat with remaining dough.

Time 3h45m

Yield 2 loaves, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1/4 ounce dry yeast (2 1/4 tsps. yeast, or one package)
1/2 cup warm water
1 cup hot scalded milk
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
2 beaten eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon salt
4 -4 1/2 cups sifted flour
1 cup light seedless raisin (soaked in warm water until soft)

Steps:

Soften yeast in 1/2 cup warm water (add a little sugar to the water). Combine milk, 1/2 cup butter, and sugar in a large mixing bowl and cool to lukewarm. Stir in eggs, vanilla, salt, and the yeast. Gradually add flour, beating well after each addition. Cover and let rise in a warm place until light and doubled in bulk, about 1-1 1/2 hours. Beat down and let rise again until doubled, about 45 minutes.
Turn batter onto a floured board and knead with your hands. Drain water from raisins and knead them into the dough. If dough is too thin, add a bit more flour. Divide batter into 2 well-greased 9x5x3-inch pans. Let rise in a warm place until light, about 45 minutes.
Bake in 350 oven for 25-30 minutes or until a deep golden brown. When done, remove from oven and while still warm, brush with melted butter. Bread should be very light and sweet.
