Combine all-purpose flour, cornstarch, yeast, sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl.

Add warm water gradually while mixing until a smooth batter forms.

Cover the bowl with a cloth and let the batter rise in a warm place for about 1 hour.

Once the batter has doubled in size, stir in cardamom and saffron.

Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat until hot.

Using a spoon, drop small amounts of batter into the hot oil, frying in batches.

Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side, then remove with a slotted spoon.

Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Drizzle with date syrup and honey before serving.

Sprinkle with sesame seeds for garnish.

Serve warm and enjoy the sweet, crispy texture.
