Gharge... Sweet Pumpkin Puri


By Khaugiri (Visit website)



Gharge is a very traditional recipe of Maharashtra. It is basically a sweet puri that has pumpkin(In Marathi: Lal Bhopla) as one if its major ingredient. Earlier in my school days my Aai used t make this very often. But now a days don't know why everybody has forgotten this. So today I took an opportunity to make a typical Maharashtrian dish for Halloween. They are very easy to make, easy to carry while travelling for children. You can keep for 4-5 days without refrigeration.















Ingredients

Pumpkin peeled and grated - 2 cups

Grated jaggery - 1cup

Wheat flour - 1 cup

Fine Rava (Semolina) - 1/2 cup

Pure ghee - 1 teaspoon

Salt - a pinch

Oil to Deep fry.



Procedure

Heat Ghee in Kadai, add grated pumpkin. Saute it and cover it for 2 minutes. Now add jaggery and cook together. Once it mixed wel and pumpkin is cooked, remove from the flame. Let it get slightly warm. Now add salt, wheat flour, rava to the pumpkin and make a dough of it. If you think it is very loose you can add more flour to it. Let the dough cool. Then make small balls of dough. Spread them out between to sheets of greased plastic to the size of a puri with hand. Deep fry these in hot oil until golden brown. Drain these Gharge on a tissue paper. You can eat it immediately or can be stored for 4-5 days without refrigeration.
