Sieve the flour, add oil to it, and mix with your fingers. Add moisture and make a tight dough, cover with a damp cloth and keep aside
In a pan, put ghee and then add khoya in it and stir on low flame for 5 minutes.
Add green cardamom powder, raisins and dry nuts and cook on a slow flame
Cook till sticky consistency, add sugar if desired. Allow cooling
Divide the dough into small balls and roll each ball into 4 inches diameter pancakes
Fill the pancakes with tutti fruity and with the above-prepared filling, a few chopped raisins, and coconut shreds and seal it in half moon shape, twisting the edges inwards.
Repeat the same to the rest of the dough and fry on medium heat. Fry till golden brown in color and garnish with nuts or silver leaf or gold leaf or as per your choice
I love this dessert, the meringue can be made the day before, the fruit and syrup can be done the day before or earlier in the day and all you need to do is whip the cream and put it all together.
