About Thekua
Thekua Recipe
Thekua is Bihar's iconic festive sweet, made with wheat flour, jaggery, ghee and fennel, then fried until crisp and aromatic.
Thekua is written for real home kitchens with Sunflower Oil, Ghee, Cardamom Powder, and Jaggery. Follow the steps in order, keep the timing practical and adjust seasoning at the end for a balanced result.
Why this recipe works
- Use a stiff dough for crisp thekua.
- Fry on medium heat so the inside cooks.
- Fennel gives the traditional aroma.
