Sweet Mewa Samosa or Khirer Singara(a samosa with sweet fillling)


Holi is an important festival in India. It is also known as the festival of colours or the festival of sharing love. Obviously, there can be no holi celebrations without homemade sweets and delicacies.


I am celebrating  holi with Khirer Singara or  Sweet  Mawa Samosa .Khirer Singara or Sweet Mewa Samosa  is a popular  Bengali sweet.It is a deep fried pastry with a mewa filling then soaked  in sugar syrup.

What is mawa?  We Bengali call it 'Khoya'.It is a common ingredient used in Indian sweets, made either from dried whole milk or by heating milk in a pan till thickened.

The filling can be varied with different combinations of mewa, coconut, semolina, dried fruits, nuts or almonds.

 I made this using chena, mewa,dry fruits stuffing,then soaked in sugar syrup.

For Holi celebration,I  used beetroot  and palak juice for making some samosas colourful.💗💚💛💙💜💓
