KARANJI SWEET 450GM

Karanji is a crisp flaky fried pastry stuffed with desiccated coconut and dry fruits. Karanji, also known as Kajji Kayalu, is a popular Indian sweet dish often prepared during festivals like Diwali and Holi. It is made by stuffing a mixture of grated coconut, sugar, and nuts into a pastry dough made from all-purpose flour and semolina. The dough is rolled out into thin circles, filled with the coconut mixture, and then sealed into half-moon shapes. These semi-circular pastries are deep-fried until golden brown and crispy. Karanji is often flavored with cardamom and sometimes includes a hint of nutmeg for added aroma. Once fried, they are allowed to cool before serving, making for a delightful treat with a perfect balance of sweetness and crunch.
