Sweet Gavvalu Or pakam gavvalu

In my childhood my mom and my grand mom used to prepare this on summer holidays and we used to have them. (Even now they will prepare of coarse. Give these a try and i am sure you gonna like.


Preparation time : 30 min
Makes : 2 cups or so

Ingredients :

All purpose flour (or) Maida : 1 cup
Ghee or oil : 2 Tbsp
Salt : pinch
Water : As needed to make the dough
Sugar : 1/2 cup

Method :

Take a bowl pour maida into it , add ghee and mix it very well.
(Till all ghee incorporated into the flour very well)
Now add water to make dough, the dough should not be too hard or too soft.


Knead the dough , make it like rope and cut into small pieces.


If you have gavva press (gavvala balla) then roll the dough away from you, on it to make shell shape.


If you don't have one like that you can even use a fork.
Take a fork turn back side, then take one piece of dough into hand and press at the back side of the fork and remove it from opposite direction , repeat the same way for all the dough.


Some I just made them with my hand. The are big and when you eat them, you will get little doughie taste.


Keep the shells aside.

(When i first made these , while keeping them aside they all stuck to each other and again formed like a dough :( , so if possible make them fast or roll one batch while they are frying, roll 2nd set of dough into shells, when i made 2nd time i made like this and they came out really good)

Take a pan , add oil heat it while you are making shells.
When oil is hot add shells to the oil and deep fry till light golden brown color , fry in a medium flame for about 5 minutes or so..

Make all of them keep them aside.
Now take another pan, add sugar and little water and let it boil till you get a thick consistency and remove from the flame.
Add the fried shell to the sugar syrup once the sugar sticks to shells transfer them to another container.

Yummy yummy teepi gavvalu are ready to serve .
Enjoy your dish :)
