Sweets-Dessert,Rajasthani
Flour 250 grams 
Khoya 500 grams 
Raisins a few 
Almonds 100 grams (finely chopped) 
Cooking oil 3 tablespoon 
Water 100 ml 
Sugar 250 grams 
Mix the oil and flour properly to form a binding consistency 
of
breadcrumbs. Add some water and knead lightly the entire 
mixture.
Make it soft dough and set it aside with a damp cloth covering
it. Fry the khoya in cooking oil till it becomes light brown 
and
then mix the sugar in it properly. Add the almonds and 
raisins,
and fry for a few more minutes. Remove from fire and let it 
cool.
Make small thick chapattis out of that kneaded dough. Fill 
half
of the chapatti with the khoya mixture and, rolling it, seal 
the
sides of the chapatti keeping the khoya inside it. Make the
sealing look decorated by giving a look of hemming. Deep-fry
these gujias until it becomes light golden brown, keeping the
flame at low. Take out the gujias on a newspaper and let the 
oil
get soaked. Serve hot or store it in an airtight container for
using it on that special day like Holi.
