Ghurua Pakode

Print Recipe

Ghurua pakode are a special type of fritters popular in Haryana and Punjab, made from jaggery and gram flour, deep-fried to golden perfection.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup gram flour (besan)
  • 1/2 cup grated jaggery (gur)
  • 1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon fennel seeds (saunf), crushed
  • 2 tablespoons melted ghee
  • 1/4 cup water (adjust as needed)
  • Oil for deep frying

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine gram flour, grated jaggery, cardamom powder, crushed fennel seeds, and melted ghee.
  2. Gradually add water and knead into a soft dough. The dough should be thick enough to hold shape, not runny.
  3. Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Take small portions of the dough, shape into small balls or patties, and gently drop into the hot oil.
  4. Fry the pakode on medium heat, turning occasionally, until they turn deep golden brown and crisp (about 4–5 minutes).
  5. Remove with slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve warm.

Notes

These pakode are best enjoyed fresh and warm. Adjust jaggery to taste for a sweeter or milder flavor. Do not overcook, as it can make them hard.
