Take 1 cup of all-purpose flour in a bowl.

Add 1 tablespoon of ghee to the flour and mix well until crumbly.

Gradually add water while kneading the dough to a medium consistency, not too soft or too tight.

Set the dough aside after kneading.

Heat 200 grams of mawa in a plate until it softens, stirring for about 1 minute until the color changes slightly.

Chop nuts (almonds, cashews, coconut) and mix them into the mawa.

Add cardamom powder to the mixture for flavor.

Roll out the dough into small circles and place a spoonful of the mawa filling in the center.

Fold the dough over to form a half-moon shape and seal the edges by pressing with fingers.

Heat oil in a pan on low to medium flame for deep frying.

Fry the gujiyas until golden brown, turning them occasionally for even cooking.

Prepare sugar syrup by boiling 1/2 cup sugar with water until it reaches a syrup consistency.

Dip the fried gujiyas in the sugar syrup for 4-5 minutes before serving.
