Note
*I personally did not measure anything so taste the batter before making gulgulas
Tips
* Coat the raisins and dates with a little bit of flour so they don’t sink to the bottom of the batter.
* Make the batter 2 shades darker than the color you desire
*Pancake batter has got a little salt in it so add a little bit more sugar if desired .
*Add more water if the batter is too thick and add more flour if the batter is too thin
