  • Oil
  • Maida
  • Salt
  • Water
  • Jaggery

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl add maida, salt and hot oil Mix well until it is crumbly and add water little by little, to knead the dough. Knead the dough until it is soft and pliable. Set aside for 5-10 mins. Split the dough into small balls of almost equal size. Take a ball of dough and press it onto the mould. Starting at one end, begin rolling it but not too tightly. Press the edges. Meanwhile, heat oil for deep frying. Once hot, set the flame to medium. Drop these prepared gavvulu 8-10 at a time. Cook slowly until they are crisp and golden brown. Drain off extra oil. Now heat the jaggery with water on medium flame. Let the jaggery dissolve and it begins to get frothy. When it is thick, add a few drops of the syrup into a bowl of water. Add the fried gavvulu into the syrup. Mix well so that they are coated with syrup all over. Separate them and let them cool down. Store in an airtight container.
