Ghevar is a delicious Rajasthani dessert. It is widely popular during the month of August or the auspicious month of Shravana. Ghevar is a disc-shaped dessert, with a honeycomb-like texture. It is made with all-purpose flour, which is soaked in sugar syrup. Other varieties of this traditional dessert include mawa and malai. As the ‘sawan ka mahina’ is nearing its end, it’s about time to savour the classic Rajasthani dessert one last time. Most people avoid making ghevar because of the complicated recipe. Therefore, we found a recipe that is easy and fuss-free. It is so simple that even a novice chef can make ghevar like a pro. 

This particular recipe has been shared by food vlogger Eshaan Nagpal on Instagram. She says, this ghevar recipe needs no maida, no malai and avoids those long hours for frying. Take a look.

The food blogger first instructs to take 20 ml clarified butter, ice to it and mix till creamy. Next, he adds 200 gm flour and 900 ml (approx) water to the clarified butter slowly while mixing. Make sure that there are no lumps, and the consistency should be a thin coating. Keep the mixture in the refrigerator for a while. On the other hand, heat some clarified butter in a pan, place a mould and pour the batter from a height. Eshaan advises making gaps in between, after a few seconds. Now, pour hot ghee over ghevar to get a golden brown colour. Remove the ghevar from the mould and keep them aside.

Assembling the ghevar

Eshaan Nagpal first pours some sugar syrup on ghevar, followed by some rabdi, and a garnish of chopped nuts. This is not it. The food blogger adds some saffron water, rose petal and gold leaf to give an eye-pleasing finish and a burst of flavours.
