Suggestions
- While kneading the dough make sure you add moen in right quantity. If the quantity of ghee is less then gujiyas will turn hard and if the meon gets too much then it will get difficult to make gujiyas and these can splatter while frying.
- Make sure that the pooris are not thin at the center else they will splatter.
- Be cautious while stuffing the gujiyas, it should not splatter. If this broken gujiya is dropped in ghee for frying then stuffing can come out and mix into the ghee. After this we will need to strain the while ghee.
- If you wish to mix mawa into the chickpea then add 50 to 100 grams of roasted mawa and mix along with some sugar.
