Baked Ghughra

Baked ghugra, here is another delectable snack made with a spicy filling of green peas and coconut which balances the bland maida covering. To be frank, making this snack requires skill as giving it its unique shape is not an easy job! The edges have to be folded skillfully to make it looking appealing. While this is how it is traditionally made, with the changing times, ghughra moulds are now being used to make these tasty nibblets.
