Laapsi or Fada Laapsi

 Laapsi or Fada Laapsi, is a common sweet prepared in Gujarati households. It is commonly prepared as a ‘Prasad’ or a holy offering at religious events. It is a simple and hearty sweet that is also nutritious. Prepared using broken wheat, it is a healthy sweet. 


Ingredients: 

  • 1 cup dalia (broken wheat) 
  • 3 tbsp ghee 
  • ½ sugar 
  • 10 almonds (soaked and cut into thin slivers) 
  • ¼ tsp cardamom powder 
  • 3 cups water

Method: 

  1. Place the pressure cooker on medium flame, and add the ghee to it. Once the ghee melts, add the dalia. 
  2. Reduce the flame and roast the dalia in ghee on a low flame for at least 10 minutes stirring occasionally. Roast until the dalia becomes aromatic and lightly golden. You will also see the ghee separating from the dalia. 
  3. At this point, add the sugar and cook it until the sugar begins to melt. 
  4. Add the cardamom powder and add 3 cups of water to it. Mix everything well. 
  5. Shut the lid of the pressure cooker securely and cook it for about 3-4 whistles. 
  6. Let the natural pressure be released, then slowly open the pressure cooker. 
  7. Check if the laapsi is fully cooked. 
  8. Remove the laapsi from the pressure cooker into the serving bowl, garnish with almond slivers and enjoy while warm.
