About the dish

What you are eating

Khoya rolled by hand, fried slowly at a low temperature so the centre cooks before the outside darkens, then rested in a syrup scented with green cardamom and a few drops of rose. Served warm. Always two.

Where it’s from

Chandni Chowk is the densest eating in India — a lane where the samosa man, the jalebi kadhai and the chole bhature counter have all been in the same six feet for four generations.

Before you order

Our dishes are a little spicy and spice levels cannot be customised — we cook them the way they are cooked at home. Our kitchen handles dairy, wheat, gram flour, peanuts and tree nuts. We do not offer vegan or gluten-free dishes, so guests with allergies dine at their own discretion — we are unable to take responsibility for allergic reactions. Everything is cooked in desi ghee or sunflower oil depending on the recipe.
