Method

  1. Roast khoya in a pan on low flame until it releases fat and turns light golden. Cool, then mix with powdered sugar, chopped almonds and cardamom to make the filling.
  2. Rub a little warm ghee into the maida, then add water in parts and knead a stiff, smooth dough. Cover and rest 20 minutes.
  3. Divide the dough into small balls and roll each into a small thin circle (puri size).
  4. Place a spoon of filling on one half, moisten the edges, fold into a half-moon and seal by pressing or pleating the rim so the filling does not leak.
  5. Heat oil in a kadhai on medium-low and deep fry the gujiyas in batches until crisp and golden. Drain and cool completely before storing.
