Chandrakala Gujiya step by step
- First lettuce prepare dough by mixing maida, salt and ghee first..
- Add water little by little to make dough. Keep aside for 30 mins min..
- Meanwhile you can prepare the stuffing. Soak the saffron in lukewarm water..
- Then heat a pan and add the mawa with low flame cook it for 1 minute, bring it out and let it cool, after cooling add powder sugar and chopped dry fruits. Mix it thoroughly...
- It should not be too crumbly..
- Prepare sugar syrup by boiling in medium flame. 1/2 string consistency is enough for this sweet..
- That is if you check a drop between your fingers, a string forms and breaks quickly..
- It will be sticky, not watery. Add cardamom, rose water after switching off the stove..
- Knead the dough after 30 mins again to make it smooth and soft without any cracks. Roll and divide into equal sized balls. I made 10 equal sized balls..
- Roll gently to thick puris. Arrange in a broad plate.To make chandrakala, stuff 2 tsp of the khoya in a side of the puri we rolled, fold and cover with the other half..
- Seal and start folding from one end. Pinch, fold and seal continuously as shown in the picture and video and seal the finishing end too..
- To make chandrakala, place the filling in the middle of the puri, cover it with another puri..
- Press the sides to seal and fold as we did for chandrakala..
- Repeat to finish. Heat oil/ ghee/ vanaspati and fry few per batch. After dropping in oil, cook in medium flame. Keep turning to ensure even browning..
- Drain from oil and let it soak for 5- 10 mins. Arrange in a tray/ box..
