250 - How to Make Deep Fried Cookies (Thekua) Recipe

The Tastes of India Podcast- Indian Recipe Podcast

Thekua are crisp crunchy cookies flavored with traditional Indian spices. These delicious deep-fried cookies are a family favorite. If you love crunchy cookies, try this traditional Indian recipe today!

Yes, this recipe has a very typical name but trust me it has a very opposite taste. Traditionally this recipe is made with wheat flour and Jaggery the recipe for which I will be sharing soon.

But this can also be made using all-purpose flour. People used to make the different designs on these cookies using "Thekua mould".

It is a wooden block with designs engraved on both sides. So when you press the dough onto it with the side of your palm, the imprint of the design on the saancha (Thekua mould) is transferred over the surface of the Thekua.

Thekua is very popular in North and East India and has been served as a sweet snack for centuries in some of these places.
