Ghughra – Gujia

October 16, 2013 by Darshita Lakkad 1 Comment




Ghughra is traditional Gujarati Sweets/Dessert. It is also known as Karanji, Gujia or gujhia. Ghughra is fried desserts filled with coconut and dry fruits.

There is another variant of Ghughra also, it used as tea time snacks. Ghughra is my favorite Diwali sweet.
