Instructions
To make the gujiya dough:
- In a bowl, add all-purpose flour and butter. Mix
- Add lukewarm water and make a firm dough. Cover it with a damp cloth and allow it to rest for 30 minutes.
To make the gujiya filling:
- In a non-stick pan, add almonds, cashews and walnuts. Toast on medium flame until lightly golden and aromatic. Transfer to a bowl and allow it to cool completely. Roughly chop all the nuts and raisins. Keep aside.
- In the same pan, add khoya/mawa. Cook on low flame for 10-15 minutes. Keep it aside.
To make the butterscotch gujiya:
- In a bowl, add khoya, chopped dry fruits and 2-3 tbsp butterscotch sauce. Mix well.
- Add powdered sugar and mix again.
- Divide the dough into small dough balls. Roll each dough ball into a thin circle. Place it on the gujiya mould. Add 1 tbsp khoya mixture. Apply flour mix along the edges and seal it. Trim off the excess dough. Make sure it is properly sealed.
- Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat. Lower the flame and deep fry the gujiyas until golden in colour.
- Drizzle butterscotch sauce over the gujiyas and serve hot.
