ASSEMBLING AND MAKING GUJIYA RECIPE
Ø When Mawa and Sugar are properly mixed, make Maida's small Ball.
Ø Roll each ball with the rolling pin to a small circle having 4 to 5 inches diameter. Don’t add too much flour while rolling. If you can roll without the flour, then it is better.
Ø With your fingertip, apply water all over the circumference edge.
Ø So that the filling does not go out.
Ø Place about 1 tbsp of the mawa filling on one side of the circle, keeping edges empty. Don’t add too much of stuffing as then it’s difficult to shape them and they may break in the oil.
Ø Carefully, bring together both the edges and join. Gently press the edges.
Ø With a small gujiya cutter trim the extra edges.
Ø When all the Gujiya is formed, add oil to the frying and fry on a light flame.
