Thekua is a crispy, mildly sweet biscuit. It is also offered in prasad on Chhath Puja. While making thekua is quite a cakewalk, the real challenge is obtaining the right texture. The right crisp and the right crunch truly elevates the flavour of the dessert. And if you are wondering how to do it right, this recipe video of khasta thekua by food vlogger Parul could be helpful. This recipe video was posted on the YouTube channel ‘Cook with Parul’. This thekua is made with wheat flour or gehu, fennel seeds, desiccated coconuts, raisins, cardamom powder, ghee, milk and jaggery powder. All you need to do is mix all these ingredients and make a binding dough. Pull out a few units and start shaping your thekua. Fry them in ghee on low flame, and you are done! 

Happy Chhath Puja 2020, everyone!
