Crispy Khaja

Sugar Syrup: Take the sugar and water in a pan. Bring it to a boil and add the lemon juice. Simmer the syrup for 7-8 minutes till a syrup of 1 string consistency is obtained.

For Paste, mix Ghee & All Purpose Flour & make a paste.

Take the Flour in a bowl and add the ghee. Rub the ghee well into the flour till you have a mixture of crumbly texture. Add a little water at a time and knead a dough of stiff consistency.

Divide the dough into 6 equal sized balls. Roll out each ball into a large thin chappati. Apply paste on 1 Chapati then put another Chapati on it & apply paste on it as well. In the same way join 6 Chapatis together then make a roll.

Cut their ends & cut the roll inot 1/2inch thick pieces. Heat oil in a pan to medium hot.

Press the pieces slightly & fry them in the medium hot Oil. Reduce the heat after adding the khaja and fry them till the bubbling is reduced and the khaja is pink in colour.

Remove the khaja and cool slightly. Soak the fried Khaja in the lukewarm Sugar Syrup for about 2 minutes and remove.Cool completely till the syrup solidifies over the Khaja.
