I’m happy and excited to share this recipe with you as, this is my own innovation!
It’s very.. yummy ( don’t mind the shape of the crinkles in the photo as it was a rush job) .
My rose plants are in full bloom these days,and the paneer pinky rose was bowing down
to it’s weight .
So this is how I got the idea from. Trust me,when I get an idea I have to do it
immediately,and I picked these flowers in the rain.
Well, all the pain up to the terrace was paid , the sweet was awesome.
So, do try this and let me know your comments and suggestions!
The sweet got it’s name SURYAKALA as it was shaped like the sun .
The outer cover is made with all purpose flour and ghee, and the filling is usually made
with Khova/ mawa with a generous amount of nuts ,fried and dipped in sugar syrup.
My version of change was the filling.
So let’s get into the recipe now
