Holi celebrations are incomplete without gujiya. Varieties of gujiya are available during Holi, but have you tried bhang gujiya? Here's a look at an easy recipe to make it at home this Holi.
01 All Purpose Flour - 4 cup
02 Ghee - 1.5 cup
03 Water - 1/4 cup
01 Sugar - 1 cup
02 Khoya - 200 gm
03 Bhang Seed Powder - 1 tbsp
04 Almonds, chopped - 1 tbsp
05 Semolina - 1/4 cup
06 Green Cardamom - 1/4 tsp
To prepare the soft dough, mix ghee and flour in a bowl. Add water and knead well. Once done, cover it with a wet muslin cloth and keep it aside for 60 minutes.
To prepare the gujiya filling, saute khoya and semolina till slightly golden and keep aside to cool. Add sugar, bhang powder, green cardamom, and almonds to the cooled khoya and mix well.
Make balls of the dough and roll them into thick rounds. Place 1 1/2 tsp of the filling and fold. Seal the edges with wet fingers in the desired shape.
Now, take a deep frying pan and add enough ghee to deep fry the gujiyas.
Once the oil reaches the smoking point, add gujiyas and deep fry on a medium flame. Fry the gujiyas till golden brown on all sides and serve hot.
