[krazy3ify]

Dear Manjula ,can you tell me a way to get it crispy? I just made it this morning and it was not as crisp as it should be

[Manjulaskitchen]

@krazy3ify

may be heat was too high when you fry the Gujias.

[IndiaDiscover]

aunty thanks for great recipie.. I have one problem while frying gujjia is they get pufed or air bubbles comes .. ? how to avoid these bubbles on crest ? rgds

[Manjulaskitchen]

@IndiaDiscover

If dough is very soft, good chance ther will be air bubbles to avoid the bubbles lightly fork the rolled dough from out side without making the holes.

[sdsabnis]

This reminds me of Bakhlawa

[MsDrRuby]

Hi Aunty,

I want to try Gujia but there is a small question ... in the ingredients you said it is "whipping cream" but while making you said it is "milk". Please let me know what is to be used to make the khoa. Thanks in advance.

[Manjulaskitchen]

@MsDrRuby

Whipping cream

[MsDrRuby]

Thank you so much aunty ... I tried it and it turned out to be really great ... everybody loved it ... the filling was really nice and tasty ... but i faced one problem while frying that the gujias got puffed up .... can you tell me something that this does not happen ... otherwise everything was great .... A LOT OF THANKS !!

[seemanaik]

Manjulaji U r absolutely amazing cook!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[neharchi]

Dear Manjulaji....

Love your recipes....its just in time for holi and I'm planning to make gujhiya...

I've a concern...

1. My mother adds a teaspoon each of roasted semolina and roasted poppy seeds to the filling to make it more crumbly....because in pure khoa gujhiya the khoa melts on frying and sticks on to the inner walls of the gujhiya...and when you bite into it...there's no flling inside.....my question is do i need to improvise this way or your recipe works fine after frying....

[mukherjeepoornima]

hi manjula aunty

I want to know can I fry gujjiyas in olive oil.

[Manjulaskitchen]

@mukherjeepoornima

I do not like to use olive oil for frying.

[rose93ist]

manju aunty u r jst amazing....i started learnin to look from thank u so much

i love all ur recipe..

[Suzie181983]

Dear Manjulaji!

Won't the Gujia become soggy when it is dipped into sugar syrup?

[Manjulaskitchen]

@Suzie181983

Gujia stays crisp.

[sarb43]

hey manjula thank you!!! add more recipe so ppl can enjoy more i love your recipe!

[nraychaudhuri]

i love your recipes.. I make rasgulla and besan ke laddu.. they came out very tasty..

[misshype09]

Wow this recipe works thank you manjula ji.

But the thing is i've used milk, will it still have that rich texture and flavourness in the Gujiya since I've used milk?

[SUNEET48]

It is really good and I will try to make it using milk powder . Please tell me which milk powder do you use and please tell which store shoud i buy it from?

Thaks again

[Manjulaskitchen]

@dimmulily

any milk powder will work and you can find in grocery store where they keep the cake baking ingredients.

[igocrazyhere]

Hello Aunty..Thank you so much for wonderful recipe's..I moved to canada from india after marriage and used to miss these awsome dishes..not anymore thanks to you...

Just one question, how do you make one thread chashni?

Thanks

[cootondoll]

hi there one thread chasni is made by adding water and sugar and then boiling it to the point where a small drop is taken in a pinch and on opening the pinch u see a thread forming .Remember over cooking can make many threads so keep checking

[laughingben]

[kijkuil]

[baabahoobaby]

[dumadum1234]

auntiji.....really v nice receipe....i lov to watch ur videos as they are v nicely explained and practical.....

[rajiragesh]

hi auntyji, wanted to know how long can u store this gujia for, u cna store them long or just 4 to 5 days as it is made with khoya???

[choorijamadar]

where dos it say khoya???....is the heavy milk & milk poder mixture called koyah??

[shaleenibeenie]

Traditionally khoya is whole milk that has been cooked down until the liquid has evaporated and you're left with this thick rich milky powder stuff. In this case the heavy milk and powder mixture is a simple fast version of traditional khoya.

[Manjulaskitchen]

you can store gujia for a month just store them in air tight container.

[majawow]

Hi Manjula, how much time aproximately do we need to make this sweet?

[jiya25041983]

whole milk or heavy cream for his recipe? can u tell me plz...

[Manjulaskitchen]

heavy cream

[leonieke123ke]

looks like gyoza... but then the Indian version of course!

[boobear46]

Your recipes are wonderful. At 7yrs old, my son had to spend a lot of time in Children's hospital. That was the 1st time I took him out for Indian food. He was hooked! Now he asks for it all the time! So, I really needed to learn and your recipes are so easy to follow but some of the ingredients are hard to find because we're in a rural area. His favorite recipe is spinach paneer. He's now 11 and dreams of going to India someday and eating every new thing he can find!

[manavi18]

All your recipes are so good and so simple..

I learn them here and they turn out so great!!!

Thanks a lot!

[sushcook]

[rajnighai]

[sushcook]

[IndianFoodRecipes]

Excellent recipe

[ashblackhawk]

Dear Manjula aunty,

Thanks for the recipe, Its just perfect. as its diwali time I tried making Gujias with your recipe. the filling was very tasty and yummy but I had problem with frying them because as soon as I put the Gujias in the oil - one side puffed up like Puri then when I tried to turn them it returend to the original side due to air. so one side was cooked and other was not cooked. can you suggest something on this. rest everything was fine my husband and family liked the taste.Thanks

[cacheanz]

very nice and looks simple, thank you

[gopxi]

they look so good I will make them soon!!

[benlow666]

Cheers

[DadiJaan14]

Aunty,

In your recipe u say heavy cream and in the video u say milk, which are we suppose to use? - Dadi Jaan

[Manjulaskitchen]

heavy cream

[DadiJaan14]

Thank u aunty, I made them today..and they turned out yummm just like they used 2 taste in India!! Thank u very much for ur recipe.

The only difference i had was that I was only able 2 make 12 out of the flour paste u wrote, I had 2 make another batch of the dough mixture as i had enough filling left! :)

but yummm thank u a lot! - Dadi Jaan

[keyamusic]

Looks yummy, will try this for sure. Thanks, great recipes, as always !!

[sharmilak]

We make something similar in maharastra called as karangi...which i made for dasera...i will try this version too of india :-). Thank you for the recipe.

[hotncool008]

reminds me of holi and grand mother. In North its made only during Holi time.

[Esunshine71]

wow this really really good

[bluejuiseritsma]

mmmmm!! they are very tempting!!!

[09Lifeambassador09]

You are a wonderful teacher of Indian Cooking - I love your videos; thank you:)!

[derubala]

in Gujarat this called Ghugharaa and it's made with Khas Khas (poppy seeds/nuts) and end of closing of the poori, it gets design.

In diwali this is a must sweet!

and mathiya, a salty treat with moth(beans) flour.

On diwali none of the gujarati house is without the ghugharaa and the mathiya.

[jaanash]

as diwali is coming i m sure gonna try this gujia..but i m gujarati and we call it 'Ghughara' in gujarat......

[jaanash]

hi manjula ji........

thanks for this recipe...

i always watch ur videos for new dishes..

keep it up..such a nice job ur doing..

[bijalrana9]

yummy gughra!!..my mom makez gughra differently!!..

[mhadzi07]

Hello! Thank you for sharing your talents. I am married to a wonderful indian guy and he loved all the cooking I made for him. You are very helpful, just a small request if you can show how to make a simple coconut chutney please! Once again, thank you and GOD BLESS!

[cathy2708]

madame, i LOOOOVE UR COOKING!

excellent recipe!

[Gerene37]

Manjula you're the best!! I've tried so many of your recipes and have never been disappointed!!!

[EwBriii]

Looks extremely good.

[tchowp]

Melon or cantaloupe or musk-melon seeds are dries and husked ( removed from their hard outer shell/skin) and lightly roasted before use. They are a popular garnish on sweets and used in crunchy mixtures and snacks like dal-moth , etc. They are called magaz seeds . Not to be confused with gujarati magaz, which is a kind of burfi.

[choowee]

I'm really excited about this aunty. I'm desi, but have never seen this sweet dish before. looks delicious! i don't like coconut... I wonder if I could substitute ground almonds or something similar instead.

[acchu1979]

wow excellent recipe.....first to comment.....

[ContrastY]

Mmmmm, savory and exotic!
