Sukhdi Recipe | Gond Pak Recipe | Gujarati Gond Gur Papdi with step-by-step photo and video recipe. Barfi or dry square-shaped recipes are common sweet recipes from Indian cuisine. Some of these are purposed-based sweets and some are generic which can be made in all seasons for various reasons and occasions. One such all-purpose healthy sweet snack recipe is sukhdi or gond pak recipe known for its simple and tasty flavor using basic ingredients.

As I was explaining earlier, sukhdi recipe is from Gujarati cuisine and it is mainly prepared for occasions like weddings and festivals. It is liked by many for its simplicity and more importantly the crumble texture. Also, typically it is prepared using just three main ingredients. Wheat flour and jaggery are the key ingredients with ghee as supporting ingredients. However, there are so many variations to this simple sweet snack. One is the addition of gond crystals. Adding gond makes it more crumbly and also adds health benefits. In addition, it can also be further extended by adding finely chopped dry fruits as a topping. I have not added it because it may not remain simple, yet ideal toppings. Do try these variations and let me know if you like the gond crystal addition.

In addition, some more additional tips, suggestions, and variations to the sukhdi or gond pak recipe. Firstly, due to the minimal ingredients used in this recipe, it is highly recommended to use high-quality ingredients. Also, I recommend roasting the wheat flour with ghee before it is used for the sweet. Secondly, the jaggery has to be melted properly so that it can be easily mixed with wheat flour. Also, use a blender to roughly powder the gond crystals. Lastly, before transferring the cooked mixture to a pan or plate, grease it thoroughly with ghee for easy shaping. Also, slice and cut it while the mixture is still warm. It can be hard to shape it later.

This is typically made in Gujarati cuisine and is typically served for auspicious occasions and festivals. Also compared to other premium dry sweets, it is much simpler to make due to the minimal set of ingredients used in it.

The main selling point of this gond pak recipe is its texture. Due to the use of roasted wheat flour mixed with melted jaggery and hot ghee, it gains a crispy or crunchy texture.
