The folds are sealed using a lobongo or a clove before they are deep-fried and dunked in thick sugar syrup. This Bengali sweet recipe of lobongo lotika gives you the perfect crunchy texture on the outside with a juicy and rich centre. • In this recipe post, you will find step-by-step process details on how to make the classic Bengali sweets recipe of Lobongo Lotika, effortlessly at home. I have tried to enunciate all the necessary details to make them perfectly by adding step-by-step images along with recipe details. • Ingredients • 100 gms Khowa or Khoya • 2 tbsp Jaggery powder alternate would be brown sugar or granulated sugar • 1 Black Cardamom • 8 Cloves • 1 cup All-purpose Flour • 3 tbsp Ghee alternate would be butter or normal unflavoured oil like sunflower oil, canola oil, etc • Oil to deep fry • 1 cup Sugar for thick sugar syrup • ⅓ cup Water • Instructions • Crumble the khowa and add grated jaggery and crushed powder of Black Cardamom seeds. Be very mindful of the amount of the spice here because it can get overpowering. Transfer this to a heavy bottom non-stick pan and cook it on very low heat. • Let the milk solid and jaggery melt. As it becomes smooth, turn off the heat. Using a teaspoon, you can divide it into equal 8 portions. Allow it to cool down. • Combine the all-purpose flour, ghee/oil, a pinch of salt and water to knead a tight dough. Divide it into 8 equal portions. Take one of them and roll it into a circular disc of 1/8th of an inch thickness. The diameter should be somewhere around 3.5 inches. Place one portion of filling right at the centre and fold it as shown here. Turn it over and give another fold before pushing a clove right at the centre to fasten all the folds together. • Drop them in warm oil and allow them to fry till they turn golden. The oil should not be hot, and not absolutely cold either. We want to fry them in a gently warm oil so that each layer of the dough gets cooked evenly. • If the oil is too hot, you will see the outer crust turning golden quickly whereas the inner layers would remain uncooked. • Meanwhile, prepare the thick sugar syrup till you get double string when pressed between two fingers. • Once they are fried into golden, take them out of the oil and drop them into the warm sugar syrup. Allow them to dip for a couple of seconds before taking them out and placing them on a wire rack. As it cools down, the sugar syrup crystallizes and makes the exterior crunchy. Serve when they have cooled down completely. • Recipe Notes • How to make Instant Homemade Khowa using Milk Powder at home? • Ingredients for instant khowa • 1 cup Milk Powder • ½ cup Fresh Cream Full Fat • ¼ cup Milk Full Fat • 2 tbsp Ghee or Clarified Butter • Recipe Instructions to make instant khowa • Take a non-stick heavy bottom pan and keep it on medium-low flame. • Add the ghee, milk and fresh cream.
