Khoye ki Gujia



Ingredients

½ cup Khoya, grated
½ cup whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon chopped cashew nuts
1 tablespoon raisins
¼ teaspoon cardamom powder
½ cup bura sugar/sugar powder
1 cup Maida/All purposed flour
1 ½ tablespoon ghee (clarified butter)
Oil for frying

Method

Take Maida (all purpose flour) in a bowl and add 1 tablespoon ghee to it and mix it well with your fingers.
Make some stiff dough with the help of a little water, cover it and keep it aside.

Heat the remaining ghee in a Kadhai / wok.
Add whole wheat flour to it and roast it.
Add grated khoya to it. Mix it well and again roast it till golden.
Now add chopped cashew nuts, raisin and remove from stove.
Now add bura sugar and cardamom powder to this mixture and mix it well.
This will be the filling for Gujia.

Out of the dough make 12-14 small balls.
Roll out each ball to 3-4” diameter thin pancake.







Take the pancake in your palm and place a spoonful of filling in the center of it .
Now apply a little water to its edges so that it can be sealed properly and on frying filling does not come out in oil.



Fold the pancake in half. Now this is a Gujia.



Place the Gujia in a Gujia mold and cut out its edges.


You can also use a Gujia cutter or a pizza cutter, or you can also seal its edges with your fingers in a decorative way.




Prepare all Gujia like this.




Heat the oil in a kadhai/wok.
Fry all Gujia till golden from all sides over a medium flame.
Drain the oil.

Enjoy it with tea or as a sweet dish.
These Gujia can be stored at room temperature for about 2-3 days.
