Prepare the Dough:

In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and ghee.

Rub the ghee into the flour until it resembles breadcrumbs.

Gradually add water and knead the mixture into a firm dough.

Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 15-20 minutes.

Prepare the Filling:

In a separate bowl, mix together the grated khoya, powdered sugar, chopped nuts, and cardamom powder until well combined.

Set aside the filling mixture.

Shape the Gujihas:

After the dough has rested, divide it into small lemon-sized balls.

Roll out each ball into a small disc, approximately 3-4 inches in diameter.

Place a spoonful of the prepared filling in the center of each disc.

Fold the disc over the filling to form a half-moon shape.

Seal the edges by pressing them together or using a fork to create a decorative pattern.

Fry the Gujihas:

Heat oil in a deep pan or kadhai over medium heat.

Once the oil is hot, carefully slide in the stuffed gujihas, a few at a time.

Fry the gujihas until they turn golden brown and crispy on all sides, flipping them occasionally for even cooking.

Remove the fried gujihas using a slotted spoon and drain excess oil on a paper towel.

Serve and Enjoy  your Homemade Gujiha.

Allow the gujihas to cool slightly before serving.

Serve them warm or at room temperature, garnished with a sprinkle of powdered sugar or chopped nuts.

Enjoy these irresistible gujihas with a cup of masala chai or as a sweet ending to your festive meal!
