Description

Makkan Peda is a delectable South Indian sweet with deep historical roots, originating from the kitchens of the Arcot Nawabs over 200 years ago. This rich dessert is crafted by stuffing a dough made from unsweetened khoya (dried milk solids) and all-purpose flour with a generous mix of dry fruits and nuts. The stuffed dough balls are deep-fried until golden brown and then soaked in a fragrant sugar syrup infused with cardamom, allowing them to absorb the sweetness and achieve a soft, juicy texture that melts in the mouth.
