Holige is a treasured Indian confection that brings sweetness and joy to every celebration. This traditional dessert is lovingly prepared for family festivals, religious occasions, and special moments.
Combine all-purpose flour, turmeric powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Gradually add water and 2 tbsp ghee, kneading into a soft, pliable dough. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
Rinse chana dal thoroughly, then boil in water until tender but not mushy (about 20 minutes on medium heat). Drain any excess water completely.
While dal is warm, add sugar and cardamom powder. Mash and cook on low heat until the mixture thickens and forms a smooth stuffing. Let cool.
Divide both dough and filling into equal portions. Flatten each dough ball, place the filling in the center, and gently seal. Roll out carefully into a thin, circular disc, dusting with flour if needed.
Heat a skillet or tawa on medium. Place holige on the hot surface, cook for 1–2 minutes per side, brushing with remaining ghee until golden and slightly crisp. Repeat for all portions.
