Kajjikaya

Kajjikaya is a traditional Indian sweet, made of a crispy fried dough filled with a syrupy sugar and nut filling. Enjoy the crunchy texture and sweet flavor of this delicacy while taking a stroll down memory lane.

How our Kajjikaya is made

Creating Kajjikaya is a meticulous process. A dough is prepared using all-purpose flour, ghee (clarified butter), and water, resulting in a smooth and pliable consistency. Small portions of this dough are rolled into thin, circular sheets. These sheets are then filled with a mixture of grated coconut, jaggery (unrefined cane sugar), cardamom, and a hint of nutmeg for flavor. The edges are carefully sealed, giving the sweet its characteristic crescent shape. Finally, Kajjikaya is deep-fried to golden perfection, creating a delightful contrast of textures and flavors.
